Tigers Prestigious One-Four Base Stormed in Five Places

TROOPS forging ahead in WELIOYA, ETHAWETUNUWEWA while giving a tough fight against the enemy this afternoon (8) mashed part of their fortified One-Four Base from several places and consolidated those positions which were about 500 - 600 metres in front of the present locations.

The fight for supremacy in the area commenced early this morning (8) and went on for about eight hours amidst heavy fire directed from both sides. The fighting claimed lives of six brave soldiers and injured eighteen more valiant soldiers. Those inflicted on seventeen Tiger terrorists and injured more than thirty-five.

They breaking of the LTTE’s prestigious so called One-Four Base in five places and capturing of those positions came as a rude shock to the terrorists who never expected the troops to creeping so soon.
