This loss would be felt by the tigers. It was their military city and played a key role in logistics. Operations wont stop here they will continue further up.

Defencenet, this is a time which we have to be very alert. LTTE will try to do something to satisfy their supporters who have being frustrated with this news.
LTTE's mission: is not the tamil eelam, but satisfy their supporters and get the foreign funds.. Edited By - CheGuevara - 9 May 2008 06:13:50 GMT |
