LTTE boat movement targeted

Air Force fighter jets carried out an air raid targeting an LTTE boat movement in the Mullaitivu seas off last morning.

An LTTE boat was destroyed in the air raid causing heavy damage to the outfit, Air Force spokesman Wing Commander Janaka Nanayakkara said.

A cluster of LTTE boats was detected 1 km away from the coastal areas off Mullaitivu seas around 8.00 a.m. "Air Force fighters successfully pounded at the LTTE boats movement and destroyed at least one Tiger boat," Wing Commander Nanayakkara said.

The air raid was carried out following accurate and precise information provided by ground intelligence sources and air surveillance.

Meanwhile, LTTE communications revealed that two self-styled LTTE 'majors' were killed in air raids launched on Sunday on a Tiger leaders gathering point.
