Tigers Prevent Civilian Exodus as Things in NSZ Get Tense

MULLAITTIVU: TIGER terrorists, cornered to the newly-demarcated ‘New Safety Zone’ (NSZ) in KARAYANMULLIVAIKKAI, have begun a massive inhuman push against civilians trying to escape since this morning (11), prompting the troops to enter the NSZ. 

Reports said as the numbers under LTTE detention in the remaining NSZ have been turning restless and aggressive, irate Tigers went on infusing fear into those civilians while firing at random, making trapped civilians to run amok. Troops on the edge of the NSZ have had no alternative, but to enter the NSZ with a view to salvaging the civilians under siege.

At the time, this report was pasted, a high degree of alertness and preparedness remained among the troops as the public were being pushed en masse by Tigers further into the south of the NSZ.
