VAVUNIYA: Air Force fighter jets carried out air sorties yesterday afternoon targeting LTTE camps in Kanakarayankulam, Vavuniya causing heavy damage to the Tiger outfit.

Air Force spokesman Wing Commander Janaka Nanayakkara said Air Force fighters carried out precise air raids targeting the LTTE camps located two kilometres South of Kanakarayankulam.

“The target was located east of the A-9 trunk road in Vavuniya and the air raid was launched around 1.00 p.m.,” he added.

In another mission, SLAF fighter jets pounded a LTTE heavy weapons and ammunition facility 2.5 Km north-east of Udayarakattakulam, Mullaitivu. The Air Force fighter pilots confirmed that the air raids were effective and successful. The air attacks were launched following accurate information provided from ground intelligence sources and air surveillance.

The air raids came hours after an LTTE light aircraft was shot down in the skies of Mullaitivu following a successful interception mission by SLAF aircraft.
