Hours after losing Thoppigala, the LTTE while acknowledging the capture by government troops, said that it will not be easy to hold the area in the future, reported Colombo Page. The outfit’s spokesman Rasiah Ilanthirayan said, "They (government forces) may have captured the area, but the question is whether they can hold it." He also warned that the LTTE would not give in easily if the government attacks the north, saying, "If they are coming into our territory, they will find stiff resistance from our people. We will deploy the necessary tactics and the necessary tools to protect our people from the opposing force." Associated Press quoted top LTTE leader S.

The military made an announcement that its commandos and soldiers have reached the Baron’s Camp of the LTTE in Thoppigala and said, "With this victory, troops have captured the ‘nerve centre’ of the LTTE terrorists in their last stronghold in the Eastern province." Military spokesperson Brigadier Prasad Samarasinghe told Daily News, "Troops have reached the main headquarters of the LTTE in Thoppigala and assumed full control. Dealing a major blow to the Tiger hierarchy in the East, those military operations bring all of eastern Sri Lanka under Government control for the first time after 13 years. The victorious soldiers are presently clearing enemy ‘pockets’ scattered in the dense jungle and are pursuing the LTTE cadres who are on the run. A small number of Tiger cadres facing imminent defeat at the hands of the soldiers are in hiding in the West of Thoppigala jungle while troops are continuing their humanitarian mission."
