The security forces (SFs) foiled a pre-dawn sea attack by the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) sinking three Sea Tiger (the sea wing of the LTTE) boats and killing at least 15 militants on May 29 (today), reported Colombo Page. A combined Army-Navy operation at the Chiraththivu islet of Jaffna district foiled an attempt by the LTTE to infiltrate the military detachment located between the Jaffna mainland and the Mandaithivu Island from the sea. Defence reports said that the Sea Tigers launched a second attack in six boats towards the same islet from the Pooneryn area. Troops repulsed the offensive sinking three boats and heavily damaging another which sank in the shallow waters at around 2am (SLT). Meanwhile, the pro-LTTE Website Tamil Net said that 13 navy personnel were killed in the incident. It also reported that the raid was launched at 1:25am and the camp was brought under LTTE control at 2am.
