SLAF fighter jets made precision air strikes at a well identified LTTE hideout located in the jungles South of Puthukudiyirippu, Mullaittivu, today (Jan 12) at around 6p.m.

According to Air Force Spokesperson, Wing Commander Janaka Nanayakkara, the air raids were conducted targeting a key LTTE hideout believed frequented by the LTTE leader. With ground troops closing-in on the last LTTE bastions at Puthukkudiyirippu and Mullaittivu, LTTE terror chief Prabakaran is running short of safe houses and escape routes, defence sources said.

The sources referring to the latest SLAF air strikes said that, the target was located in a thick canopy area at Venavil, one of the remaining hideouts of Prabakaran, who is kept in toes due to the multi-pronged air and ground assaults. LTTE communication is experiencing a standdown since the time of attack the sources said adding that, this is similar to the reaction shown by the outfit, when Tamilchelvan was killed.

North Indians think, instead of the secularity promoting Indian govt with Congress, BJP led central govt has good relationship with Sri Lanka every time when they come to power.

Chennaiguuy,
Didn't anyone tell Thivya what was the other handle I used in LNP?


Yarlan,

I know that and I was about to complain to Mr. Brown. Using multiple handles is against the rule of this forum. You openly admitted it like some kind of bravery of yours but Mr.Brown still didn't ban you. As a responsible senior member of this forum, I cannot tolerate this kind of abuse. :))
