Aid agencies said 134000 displaced people are in Kilinochchi district alone. The Government leaflets said the outfit is facing huge defeats and urged civilians to save their lives by leaving for Government-held territory, adds The Hindu.

Troops captured the strategically important Malawi town on September 1-afternoon, military sources told Daily News. Military spokesman Brigadier Udaya Nanayakkara said troops are poised to capture the town fully, completely flushing out the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) militants by September 2 (today). "Troops who entered Malawi town by Sunday afternoon from the ninth mile post expanded their positions up to 8th mile post by yesterday afternoon. Troops are now further expanding their positions surrounding Malawi town towards Thunukkai and Mankulam", an unnamed military official told Daily News, adding, the LTTE defended this strategic town constructing a massive earth bund from the south and inducting their well trained cadres. Malawi, one of the main administrative hubs of the LTTE where they kept many of their foreign visitors arriving in the Wanni to meet their leaders, is located surrounding the ninth mile post on the Mankulam- Vellankulam road which links the Jaffna Kandy A-9 road and the Mannar- Pooneryn A-32 road. Malawi reportedly has a hospital, banks and a massive bakery complex which can make 5000 loaves of bread at once.

The Sri Lanka military said that the combined air and artillery attack by the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) over Vavuniya in the pre dawn hours of September 9 killed 21 combatants on both sides, reports Colombo Page. Preliminary reports said the abortive ground artillery attack on the Wanni security force’s (SF) Headquarters Complex in Vavuniya killed 10 Army soldiers and one Police constable. While seven airmen, nine Police constables and one civilian also sustained injuries as a result of exchange of heavy fire, the troops have so far recovered 10 bodies of militants, including five female cadres. Simultaneously, two LTTE aircrafts providing support to the artillery attack dropped two bombs which missed their intended target falling on the office area failing to cause much damage. Meanwhile, the Sri Lanka Air Force (SLAF) fighter jets which had taken off from Katunayake Air Base intercepted the two fleeing aircrafts and shot one down. "Three aircraft were seen on radar. One was over Vavuniya and dropped a bomb and went back. There was also an artillery attack into Vavuniya," said an unnamed military official. The Black Tiger (suicide wing of the LTTE) squad staged a similar combined air and ground attack in October 2007 on the Anuradhapura Air Base killing 14 soldiers and destroying four SLAF’s aircrafts. 20 militants were also killed in the incident.
