The security forces continued to advance in the Vavuniya-Mannar sector on December 24, taking full control of Thampanai town on the Madhu road as the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) cadres in the area withdrew amid heavy fire, according to defence sources. The fall of Thampanai town is considered a major breakthrough in the efforts to flush out the LTTE from these areas and clear the path to Wanni, senior military officers said.

Troops earlier captured the Uyilankulam LTTE entry/exit point and a major LTTE base south of Periyathampane on December 22.
