Lanka army enter LTTE's last hold Mullaittivu
Colombo, Jan 25: Sri Lankan army on Sunday, Jan 25 entered the last major hold of Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) in the north Sri Lanka, Mullaittivu. Amid fierce resistance by the LTTE, Lankan army's 59 Division soldiers fought their way into the town. Reports suggest that the remaining rebel cadres were presumed to be in the surrounding jungle areas.
The military sources said that troops made a surprise attack across the Nanthikandal lagoon and entered Mullaittivu on Sunday, Jan 25 morning. The rebels took hold of the town in 1996 and since then the LTTE had established its main military base there.
Mullaittivu is situated in a narrow stretch of land between Nanthikandal lagoon and the Indian Ocean. Army told that once the combing operation is completed the area will be declared 'liberated'.
