LTTE lose another 'Lt Colonel' as army enters Kilinochchi district

Yet another 'Lt. Colonel' ranked member of the LTTE was killed by the Sri Lanka Army in a confrontation that took place north of Kiriibbanwewa today.The female fighter, identified as 'Kumawei Thangeiamma' was killed while trying to resist the advance of the army's 59 division. Another 'Lt Colonel' of LTTE's women fighter wing was killed by the army on Tuesday (29th) north of Weli-oya.

Meanwhile infantry units of the 58 division and the 2 Commando regiment crossed the borders of Kilinochchci district last evening marking another significant milestone in the Wanni operation. The 58 division units secured an area of around 5 square miles and recovered bodies of 7 LTTE cadres as they laid siege to LTTE held Vellankulam.

In another front, small groups of soldiers from the 57 division kept hunting LTTE cadres south of Tunukkai. The 57 division aims to capture the town of Tunukkai, which plays a vital role in handling supplies between sea tiger bases in the western coast and LTTE bases in Wanni.

With forces breaking through LTTE defences into Kilinochchci district, the Wanni operation enters a more decisive phase. The army has achieved much progress in the operation so far but it has not been without sacrifices. For the first six months of 2008, nearly 650 soldiers have laid their lives for the motherland. A further 4400 suffered injuries. The LTTE has suffered from much higher casualty figures during the same period. According to LTTE released figures, the number of LTTE deaths for the first 6 months of 2008 is somewhere around 1100. According to military intelligence, the figures is a lot higher. The loss of cadres has prompted the LTTE to take forcible recruitment to the extremes; in some areas of Wanni military training is mandatory for all civilians between the ages of 18-60.

  13. thiru seriously man... get a life... your concern about our casualties... you should worry 'your' casualties.

    hypothetically lets say the army lost twice the number of casualties of what the LTTE claim. whatever said army recruitment is high... and for the last 2 years we have only heard military capture this the military captures that... what has the ltte captured?

    until your leader is able to pull something off shut the fuck up and piss off... and worry about your casualties will worry about ours!

Well, according to ur fellow modhayas, we are all srilankan, so are u sayin a tamil doesn't have a right to know the casualties of the "bravehearts", or is that only classied info for the singhalas? I support ur mentality, that is what we want, we want eelam. But thick headed modhayas don't understand this concept, i guess their blood has to be spilled in vanni for them to realize.

    Lets get serious here!
    DN
    Where is that tippex?
    Our time is too valuable….

    Bit concerned about Soosi’s buddy being living in a refugee camp in TN.Perhaps there are others, though few in numbers might spring a surprise on us from the West(sea).Such an surprise in small numbers could cause much damage. They could even land in Negambo bay and attack the Air Port or reach the Colombo harbour and destroy any cargo vessel in the harbour. Desperate as they are now,they need a morale booster with a daring mission as numbers does not matter with a surprise operation. Perhaps the TN cops and RAW are aware of a such a plan, reason for this guy’s ‘detention’ until their PM leave the island after the SAARC circus another reason for the heavy Indian navy and forces deployed close to the island.
    Perhaps after this Colombo circus they might unleash somthing in Colombo or at the AB from sea. I hear this Naveen guy has been leading some spectacular sea attacks.

  30. Heavy clashes erupts in Wanni, troops encounter stiff resistance from terrorists

    Heavy clashes have flared up in the South of Tunukkai and South of Mallavi areas since this morning (August 1), said the defence sources in the Vavuniya - Mannar battlefront.

    According to the sources, troops of 57 division continuing their advance towards the strategically vital Tunukkai town and Mallavi town have come under stiff resistance from LTTE terrorists struggling to hold their strongholds. Terrorists have lobbed hundreds of mortars in order to slowdown the advancing soldiers. However, troops have effectively overpowered the terror attack and taken the situation under control, the sources added.

    According to the available information, several soldiers have been killed and others suffered wounds due to the enemy mortar fire. The terrorists too have suffered serious damages. The battle is still on, the latest reports said.

    More information will follow..

  35. I have seen diagrams that show "57th devision", "task force1", "task force2" which are operating west of mankulam-omanthai.

    But some time back I saw some posts in other websites saying that "58th devision" was also operating in mannar region.

    ("61st devision" is acting as a defence unit in the liberated areas and currently doing clearing operations.)

    What I wanted to know is where exactly is the "58th devision" ?(mentioned in various other web sites). Diagrams in www.defence.lk only show the other devisions that I mentioned earlier.

  43. Guys Tamilnut says 30 SLA killed... and defence.lk say heavy fighting looks like we surfered few casualties.. Anybody got info?

  44. //Tamilnut says 30 SLA killed//

    How do they know 30 SLA killed? They don't have a single body. (If they have 30 bodies we have to accept.) Usually SLDF say when they refer to enimy casualties "LTTE communications reveals...", "ground based inteligent reports...", etc when you don't have bodies. But tamiznut just say 30 SLA killed and how did they get that info? tigers said. We know ont tigers said to taminut tiger to write 30 but how the first tiger got that figure?

    (This is not a question for diaspora as they belive whatever in pro-LZTE media as the bible. ANd this is not a question for us as we know the nut lies. But still this should be a question for an independent reader.)

  45. "We suffered 11 soldiers killed and 20 wounded and the terrorists lost seven killed and 27 wounded," Nanayakkara said, adding that the fighting had subsided by Saturday morning.

    For their part, the Tamil Tigers said they had resisted a major military onslaught against them and claimed killing 30 government soldiers and wounding another 60.

    The pro-rebel Tamilnet.com website reported that the Tigers had also seized a troop carrier that was trying to evacuate wounded soldiers. The guerrillas did not give their casualties.

    Even if 200 die nothing is going to help EELAM xxxxvi at this stage-This is "the great patriotic war" of ALL peoples of SLanka.I think some people think that this is their fight against a "GOOD terrorist organisation" who were mollycoddled in the U.K over the past 30 yrs-see they were "good fellows" who had the wellbeing of the tamil people at heart.Of course at that time they were blasting buses in Slanka and showing their "BRITISH" passport at BRITISH immigration-accompanied by the TChelvan smile:):)of course.

    Dont talk like a fool... (Then again you are one)

    yes Army says that 11 have died and Tamil Nut say 30 so i guess the actual figure is around 20 SLA gave thier lifes..

    This is to expected otherwise this wouldnt be a war..

    As long as we did enough damage to the enamy i dont see any reason to be worried. If they didnt put a fight then only we should be worried because then somethig is not ok

    ReplyDelete
  51. Tamilnut has relegated the "30 SLA Killed" to second place. The headline is now about some obscure opinion poll in Thamiz Nazu. If there is any truth on the figures, then that article would be kept in top place and they would publish pictures soon after. We have been watching Tamilnut for a while and have learned to predict their behaiviour.

  55. With the security forces tightening their grip in Mulathivu it is highly likely that velu.prabha will try to escape (with other civilians) or disguise himself, or hide temporarily (by loosing weight, growing a beard etc. look at past terror leaders like saddam hussain/Radavan karadich).

    So it's better for the navy to intensify its activities along the Mannar, Kachchathivu cost and also the east coast.

    (Like one of my army friends who told me recently) May be the army can even bring in another new division south of 59th division, so that the 61st division can focus more on the defense/search operations Mannar region. This will also enable the 59th division to focus more on offensive activities between "Nayaru lagoon" and Otiyamalai, limiting the LTTE heavy artillery activities south of nayaru.

  59. Now SLDF has to change the tactics to get rid of casualities from ARTI & Motar.
    Reson is , LTTE is now concentrated in to small area and they can move their 130mm motar and Arti to attack any front of SLDF with very short notice.
    It is like a DDOS attack in the computer networks.
    LTTE can direct their indirect fire to a one destination from different ARTI locations.
    But SLDF is streching more and more and that capability Of SLDF can reduce conciderably.

    There is only one quick solution for over come LTTE ARTI & Motar and SLDF alredy knows about it.
    But I do not know, wether they will have a urgency and will to execute the plan.

  64. Sri Lankan forces seem to be getting over-confident and assuming that the tigers are finished. That could and will prove to be a very bad mistake to make. The LTTE is on the verge of losing everything they've amassed over teh past 30yrs and its leadership is not averse to committing mass scale genocide at this point, even if it kills every tamil person in the area. In fact a large number of Tamil deaths will further re-inforce the 'glory' of their cause and legitimize the victimology central to the psychotic mindset.
    The military has been capably led so far, but by all indications, the LTTE appears to have successfully retained its strike capability and majority of the heavy weapons incl over 100 units of artillery over 80mm. That is very high fire power, especially when our forces are within 5-10 miles range. That will become a virtual killing field and our guys are getting close.
    My take on this is that the speed needs to be slowed for the mass movement of soldiers and assets, while intense human-intel (humint) activity needs to be engaged in to identify two specific targets in real time, the heavy gun locations and key field command personnel of the LTTE. The forces should prioritize liquidating these in substantial numbers before consolidation of medium and short ranges from the big LTTE installations.

    Analysis time people..

    You can see the vehilce they captured was a jeep. Definitely not an APC. They seem to be overjoyed with the capture of it, putting up a tiger flag over it. A little embarassing isn't it?

    They terrorists there are wearing some head gear. Are they from some LTTE elite formation? The vertical striped uniforms seem to suggest so.

    The caputured arms seems sizeable? Is it? That mortar launcher, what calibre is it? what's that other RPG looking weapon with bipods?

    The RPG like weapon is an RPG-7 derivative, they do come with bipods, the heat guard is just painted black or is a black polymer. that’s all, this example has no optics, just iron sights. Also there are a Type-56 LMG (Chinese copy of the famous RPD) and a Pakistani(copy of a Chinese mortar)/Iranian 60mm mortar. And a few famous "$5 greandes" (Type-82/2)

    There may be a few ltte "elite" unit members there, at least from the CASR. Note on the last pic and on the one with the ltte flag over a Land curser "APC" (wow Toyota might be thrilled) guy carrying a Type-97 bullpup 5.56 assault rifle, he is in civvies.

  76. I was looking at the Tamilnet pictures.

    Not all the battles could be won and this is minuscule compared to the overall gains that SLA has achieved.

    Every this kind of instance is a small lesson.

    From the photos, I can say that our soldiers have got the needy equipment in their hands.

    This is perhaps a small oversight that has cost them their lives.

    LTTE will get thousand time more than this.

    the green beret, I don’t think our lads carry ceremonial /regimental dress items to the forward battle ares.

    There are some tiger units that ware green & black berets. So I guess it is one of them, or it could be a trophy he picked up.

    About the bullpup, it is a NORINCO Type-97 (the version of the QBZ-95 chambered for 5.56mm NATO), seen with LTTE bodyguard units, black tigers (like the once who attacked AAFB) and some of the CASR.

  93. The Mig-29s will be in on the game soon, possibly as early as in August.

    Though not convinced of its need at this time, thermal imaging capabilities to pick heavy weaponry and vehicle movements along with precision delivery capabilities of this asset could become very useful.

    Pooneryn may be a candidate for a first visit for the Mig-29s along with the Navy singing chorus. The Navy should consider mounting a MBRL capability on at least one of its faster ships for this particular job.

    Such a softening could pave the way for a walk over when the tired boys of the SLA get there.

  94. Hey Shyam-the-single-ball,

    Learn to write a proper sentence in English before commenting on heavy issues like Economy, welfare and war strategies.

    We don't mind helping you in that regard, if you make an effort.

    Write simple sentences to begin with, without copying others for the sake of it.

    Gods sake and stuff like that lift your rank from a damn fool to bloody idiot. Combine that with the absence of one ball, it will be the mother of all humiliations, isn't it?

    Make a bluetack ball and stick it at the right place to improve on balance of mind and your writing.

    Heavy fighting erupted yesterday between the Army's 57 Division and the LTTE's Charles Anthony, Imran Pandian and Intelligence Wing cadres south of Mallavi. Fighting erupted as the LTTE's cream made a counter-attack on regular troops of the Army after the 57 Division captured an area of around 900m2 in one day.

    The army lost 20 men, five went missing, the bodies of three of whom were captured by the tigers. The LTTE went away with at least 20 dead in its own ranks and 30 wounded, all from the three 'elite' units. LTTE leader Banu was heard advising his troops to make maximum effort to capture at least a few SLA bodies.

    The Tigers managed this goal by ambushing Army casualties. As the fighting raged on, the Army dispatched a jeep to bring back the injured. A tiger ambush team fired an RPG at the Jeep, thus killing 3 soldiers, including the driver and two casualties being rushed to hospital.

    A few days ago, a SLA LRRP team was detected in the area just south of Kilinochchi at Kokavil by a group of LTTE civilian force members who called in reinforcements. The team of six special Forces fought valiantly losing two men in the process. Finally, a chopper full of Special Forces was brought in, who decimated the LTTE attack and rescued 4 men and one body. The other body was captured by the Tigers.

    Last Wednesday, three Special Forces teams lay in ambush along the Vellankulam-Mallavi road waiting for a group of Charles Anthony cadres to arrive. The first team ambushed a team of Charles Anthony unit cadres as they came along the road. The Tigers rushed in a second team of Charles Anthony, which was also ambushed by the 2nd SF team. In desperation, Tigers sent in a 3rd team, which to their horror was ambushed by the 3rd team lying in waiting. Altogether a total of 24 Charles Anthony unit cadres were killed in the attack.

    In the meantime, the Army's 58 Division (Task Force-1) captured the strategic village of Vellankulam. The SLA's next direction of operations remains to be seen.

  104. I was appalled to see all the big guns of our defense establishment, GR,SF, the Air Force chief and Navy Guru in one room in Vavniya.. Are they crazy?? Have they not learned from Kobbakaduwa and the crowd’s death? This is one single strike where all our successful military operation against the tigers can come to a dead halt just like with Kobbakaduwa and the crowd’s assassination. It is like a defeated boxer in the last thirty seconds of the last round managing to pull one solid punch against the overconfident opponent with his guard down and all that the victorious fighter did in all the previous 11th rounds goes down the drain. Please, can some one drive some sense to our most important assets. If they want to commend the troops, please do so separately one at a time so that the tigers cannot launch a decapitating attack which can turn the table around for the tigers. This is the tigers last hope. Do not open up any loop holes to these maggots now. Kill them, eliminate them and then we can rejoice. Foolishly dead heroes do not serve any purpose to our dear motherland

  108. According to kittu and shyam LTTE retreats are "tactical-retreats".

    This has been said since the "mavilaru" operation.

    Every time the armed forces come near a camp they (the LTTE) do thier "tatical-retreat"...


    PS: They seem to be redefining the word "tactical-retreat" if you ask me.

  115. If LTTE locate there artillery guns in civilians area and attack the advancing troops continuously, how we can retaliate???

    ReplyDelete
  116. b#1,

    this will be the MOST important issue to hit the MoD pretty soon.

    1. use MiG29s with advanced precision attacks.

    2. use small groups to attack (DPU)

    3. disperse civilians peacefully (leaflets, etc.) coupled with not-so-peaceful methods

    4. attack tiger weapons warehouses and big guns even if it creates civilian casualties. this is allowed and is not a war crime.

    a classic example is afghanistan. russians could beat the mujahiddin in afghanistan UNTIL fresh supppies of weapons/cadres/plans came from pakistan. it also provided a safe haven for mujahiddin topcats. US is not doing the same mistake. they are attacking pakistan as well.

  127. Isn't it high time that we offer a general amnesty for Tiger Cadres? We can offer an amnesty to encourage desertions / surrenders with the promise of rehabiliation and gaurantee that they won't be hunted down or prosecuted / persecuted. This should be a sincere amnesty. Seeing that the LTTE won't surrender as an organisation, the amnesty should target individual cadres. I am surprised that this hasn't happened already. The expectation is that poor Tamil village boys / girls (who are fighting againts their will and are essentially lamb being sent to the slaughterhouse) will surrender leaving the hard core brainshed die hard non surrendering pigs to be hunted down to extinction. Any thoughts?

  142. Nemesis,

    Some entities come to my mind,

    Irrigation Dept of Sri Lanka
    http://www.irrigation.gov.lk/

    Post Graduate Institute of Agriculture
    http://www.pgia.ac.lk/

    or contact an enthusiast like Jagath who works on GIS focusing internal waterways of SL..(j.vithanage@cgiar.org ) or Pierre http://matox.com/pierre/?p=36 and ask for reliable resources where we can find the maps.

    I hardly believe that much of the maps are up to date; especially about the North.

    I know that both the World-bank and the EDB released massive loans/aids to Sri Lanka for waterways charting and irrigation mapping in many occasions.

    Surely all the mapping data go as a copy to the Survey Dept of Sri Lanka too. That may be a good source.

    In addition, inquiring the Sri Lanka Foundation Institute - used to have some large maps that have been done in the 80s too in their Torington SQR Library.

    Just few of the thoughts.

  143. Sri Lanka Police first publish their findings and then go to arrest people - this is like telling the culprit in public that we are coming to get you in few days, and escape ..

    an institute in germany called international landkartenhaus bought practically all types of maps the survey dept. had in the early 80's, before the restriction of the sale of certain maps came into effect. i did a bit of search and i think it's by name
    http://www.geokatalog.de/ilh.home.htm
    though I am not sure because it was long time back and before the internet era.

    they might still have them.

    another option is, if you can find, a copy of the 'National Atls of Sri Lanka' published in the early 80's. this is a very large format very detailed atlas worthy of the name. It's out of print since the late 80's but should be available in the US library of Congress (18 copies purchased0 and this Landkartenhause which bought about 50 copies.

    the local supplier made a lot of money in the supplied but rgerteted later on as the thought crossed his mind that these were bought by a ltte front.

    in Colombo, you can find these maps and atlas at the survey dept. library and the national library

    The solution to this is not merely a larger security presence but a carefully laid out intelligence network.

    LTTE's biggest bomb making cell was broken up just a few months ago. There are still dormant players who are keeping low.

    In the meantime LTTE still in Yala, there are reports some families have become VERY wealthy suddenly w/o a cause...there is strong suspicion that these 100 odd LTTE cadres are paying a fortune to Sinhalese/muslims for supplies.
