Soldiers engaged in clearing operations in Vellamullivaikkal in Mullaittivu had to play a different kind of role on 25th July when they came across two cows with injuries on their hind legs. They suffered as a result of an LTTE mine explosion.
The soldiers of 11th Engineering Regiment of Sri Lanka Engineers who were on mine clearing operations took time off to remove the two injured cows from the scene and Sri Lanka Army Medical Corps treated the cows with much patience.
Condition of those two animals is gradually improving, thanks to the soldiers who were broad-hearted enough to treat the animals.
