The LTTE, a little while ago attempted to attack the Jetliner troop transport ferry in Trincomalee today. Two gravity bombs were dropped near a Navy Billet injuring a few Naval ratings.

One of the two bombs had exploded. The `Tiger Air Force` planes had come from the direction of the sea, flying very low, Naval sources indicated. The Jetliner transports large numbers of troops from Trincomalee and back on some nights.

Anti-aircraft guns from the town and China bay had engaged the planes unsuccessfully in pitch dark but had managed to force them away. The Tiger pilots seem to have found it difficult to locate their target.

6 killed, 24 injured in Air Tiger attack
Wednesday, 27 August 2008 13:36
Six naval personnel were killed and 24 others injured in an air raid by the LTTE on the Trincomalee Naval Base last night (August 26th), defence sources said.

Meanwhile, the Defence Ministry website, citing Navy sources, said the navy base was warned by the Air Force of an approaching Air Tiger aircraft around 9.00 pm.

'After few minutes, naval troops detected the aircraft and engaged it with anti aircraft guns. The machinegun fire caused the aircraft to make away without entering the naval dockyard,' it adds.

Noting that the LTTE craft dropped two bombs into the camp, the website says that only one had exploded.

Communication was cut off with the eastern port city following the incident.

The LTTE is yet to confirm the said air attack.

Those 'bath kuros' will be chased and will be destroied

sooner or later they will leave it behind for their lives.
Then we will have something to put in our museums along with Multi Barrel Rocket Launchers.
May be Praba will fly out for his life one day on one of with this.

I don't think Takaran Force Missed it. They just want to put up a show to diaspora to collect more money and lift the morale of the cadres.

Air Strike, a few photographs, an enjoyable field day for LTTP friends...they've achieved it all.
