...The Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) in a statement claimed they had also wounded about 400 government troops in the latest fighting in the northern peninsula of Jaffna.

"The Sri Lanka army suffered more than 100 killed in action and about 400 wounded in action," the LTTE statement said. "Sixteen valiant LTTE soldiers sacrificed their lives in this confrontation."

However, the military rejected Tiger claims and said only 38 government troops were killed and 84 wounded. The military said troops had killed 52 Tigers.

There was no independent verification of the claims.

Unconfirmed reports said about 127 soldiers were killed or missing following the latest fire fight.

    Government wont tell the true casualty amount cos it will make a huge problem. So they try to cover up the amount. there are other sources also. Coming directly from the Army.
