Army Commander Lt. General Sarath Fonseka refuted allegations by the LTTE that civilians in Kilinochchi and Mullaitivu are getting killed and injured due to the shelling of the SFs. "The LTTE is holding these civilians as a human shield. We have never fired artillery in to the civilian populated areas since these areas are located some 15 Kilometres away from the Forward Defence Lines. The LTTE is shelling these areas and trying to put the blame on us", the Army Commander told Daily News. According to the Army Commander around 200000 people are living in Kilinochchi and Mullaitivu districts along with 30000 displaced civilians and the LTTE is keeping them and providing them military training to be deployed in the Forward Defence Lines.

The military on December 7 claimed to be advancing on multi-fronts into parts under LTTE control in the Kilinochchi and Mullaitivu districts, The Hindu reported. The Defence Ministry said, “Pushing an end to the 30-year-odd terrorist cause and the most prolonged, single handed counter terrorist campaign in South Asia, Sri Lankan security forces are advancing in multi-fronts with 7 offensive divisions.” It claimed that troops were now positioned in “kissing distances” to the outer defence lines of the LTTE’s administrative heartland and main garrison township at Kilinochchi. It said formations advancing from west of Paranthan, Adampan, west of Iranamadu, Terumurikandi, Kokavil, Kanakarayankulam, Puliyankulam, Northeast of Olumaduwai and Alampil had caused great damage to the LTTE leaving “scores killed and as many injured” during the past few days. “Security forces have now liberated a total stretch of 48 km along the A-9 Jaffna-Kandy trunk road, from Kokavil to Omanthai. This is the first time since 1998 that security forces have gained control over a vast territory of the A-9 road”, the military said, adding, “Defence observers are also anticipating the fall of Oddusudan, Nainamadu and Nedunkerni LTTE fortifications as troops of TF 3 and TF 2 march along the A-34 Mankulam- Mullaitivu and the Puliyankulam — Tanniyuttu roads making the dominant eastward military thrust expected to link with the 59 Division at the eastern battlefront.”
