Damned,
Has EP captured yet ?
Chennai Booruwa,
The pro- Tamil website, Cyber News said, The Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) have begun withdrawing from entrenched positions in the strategic Elephant Pass region.
The narrow Isthmus that links the Jaffna peninsula to the Northern mainland known as Wanni by land is often described as the gateway to Jaffna .
Preparations are also afoot to vacate tiger positions in other key places in Eastern Wanni like Mullaittivu, Oddusuddan, Muhamalai, Kilaly and Vatraappalai.
Apparently soldiers are now about one km to the south of Elephant Pass and are near Kurinchatheevu adjacent to Elephant Pass. Realising that Elephant Pass is not defendable the LTTE have begun vacating the area, the sources say.
The LTTE cadre fleeing from Elephant Pass, Mullaittivu, Oddusudan and Vatraappalai are expected to hide in heavily entrenched fortified bunkers in the jungles of Mullaittivu.
The Elephant Pass had taken by the LTTE in April 2000 after a fierce and bloody battle with the Sri Lankan army. Nine years later the historic Elephant Pass has now been secured by the government forces.
