The Sri Lankan military said it has sunk 12 boats of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) and killed 80 of its cadres in a sea battle off the northern Jaffna peninsula on September 1-2, according to BBC.

Witnesses said the battle continued all night and hundreds of civilians sought refuge in schools and churches.
