'This is the third debacle of the SLA in Ki'linochchi district within the past few weeks,' Puleedvan added.

Heavy fighting raged from 5:00 a.m. till the evening when the move was thwarted.

Two AK-LMGs, one PK-LMG and six T-56 assault rifles were among the weapons seized by the Tigers so far in the clearing mission which was going on, he said.

The Tigers were making arrangements to hand over the 18 dead bodies, 10 from Ki'linochchi and 8 from Ki'laali, through the ICRC, Puleedevan said.

Kural mate defencenet updated with 30 KIA, 10 MIA in Kilali, which surprise suprise adds up to Tamilnet's 40 Killed :)

But this is going up, since the other terrorists and squatters were envious that 40 of their fellow thieves got to actually kiss the dirt than just getting within 'kissing distance', so they are trying again to achieve that ellusive kiss themselves....
