LTTE suffers ignominious defeat in Mannar ; Army Captures Sluice Gates
of Sinnaodaippu
Sri Lanka Army soldiers running at terror defences in Mannar today
(February 28) achieved a tremendous success against LTTE terrorists by
establi****ng the domination over the area of Sinnaodaippu in the North
of Giant Tank today (February 28). According to the latest military
re****ts received from Mannar battlefront troops have been able to
capture an im****tant sluice gate in the area along with a fortified
bunker and a trench defence of the terrorists.
According to the defence sources in the area, Sri Lanka army infantrymen
backed by artillery, launched the first assault at the terrorists'
defence line around 10.a.m. and were able to beat off the terrorists by
11.45.a.m. The ground troops have re****ted that 20 terrorists were
killed during the confrontation. However, the overheard radio
transmissions of LTTE have revealed that only 14 cadres were killed
during the first assault. During the subsequent search in the area ,
troops have found six T-56 riffles.
The sources further said that the terrorists made a counter attack
around 12 noon with terror leaders Bhanu and Lakshman leading from the
back. About 70-80 terrorists re****ted to have come to the attack but
were crushed in the army retaliatory fire, said the sources. The
terrorists have quickly turned tail with heavy casualties despite the
wailing of Bahanu and Lakshman on radio for the frontlines to hold out,
the sources added.
Ground troops have re****ted 20-30 LTTE cadres were either killed or
wounded. Also, the LTTE radios have transmitted an inevitable retreat
with heavy damages after the abortive counter attack.
Further , the Army snipers who were deployed along with advancing troops
have re****ted shooting down of 10 more LTTE cadres.
Four soldiers suffered injuries , including 2 in serious conditions. The
injured were rushed to Anuradhapura hospital.
Troops are consolidating their defence in the newly liberated terroritoy.
