MULLAITTIVU: ANOTHER attempt by desperate Tiger terrorists to cause destruction to the Army Defence Line in KARAYAMULLIVAIKAL was foiled by the troops this morning (16) around 10.00 a.m..
Having observed a bus speeding towards the troops from the direction of LTTE-held areas, soldiers activated and opened fire at the bus which instantly turned into a ball of fire with a huge explosion before it reached the Army Defence Line.
A huge column of black smoke spiraled into the sky as the explosive-laden vehicle was reduced to ashes.
At the time these photos were taken, the bus was still ablaze as the second and third photos depict.
