23 Sri Lanka Army (SLA) soldiers were killed and four wounded in a Claymore ambush at Periyavaddavaan in Tharavai (Thoppikkal) area in Batticaloa district Tuesday evening around 6:30, well informed sources in Batticaloa told TamilNet. Wounded soldiers were admitted to Welikande hospital. This is the first major ambush on SLA since the Sri Lankan forces occupied the Thoppikkal region an year ago.

However, military officials in Colombo said only one SLA soldier was killed in the ambush and three wounded.

The SLA soldiers were traveling in a truck.

Im surprised LTTE took some time even to lay a claymore mine. These type of attacks are to be further expected in desperation just to keep the presence.

But will East Elam a reality !! ? No

Enjoy the story Peezamists. I am yet to see this in international media or quite interestingly any photos that normally come even before operations are missing for this story.
