MULLAITTIVU: AN LTTE TRACTOR bringing reinforcements to resist advance of valiant 57 Division troops met its doom late Tuesday (29) evening when it was moving, about 6 km to the south of KOKAVIL, MULLAITTIVU.
As fierce fighting erupted in areas surrounding AKKARAYANKULAM, Tiger terrorists now throwing their full weight behind their resisting tactics were busy bringing in their reinforcements to the battlefronts in a frenzied manner. The tractor in question with about 15-20 terrorists aboard were in that area when the troops rolling in to the east of AKKARAYANKULAM spotted it and fired on it.
Initial reports said at least two Tigers perished and more than fifteen were injured following the surprise attack directed by alert troops consolidating their positions. Exact casualty figures of the enemy are still to be revealed.
