| SRILANKA UPDATE |
| The government is on the cusp of completing a famous victory against Sri Lanka’s Tamil rebels. Now it needs to avert a massacre, and make peace AFTER a terrible battle on April 3rd-5th, Sri Lanka’s surviving Tamil Tigers withdrew to a government-designated “no-fire zone”—a narrow beach, packed with refugees, on the country’s north-eastern coast. The army claimed to have killed 525 of the rebels, including two fierce women commanders, Vidusha and Durga. Killing (or capturing) their leaders, above all Velupillai Prabhakaran, the Tigers’ supremo for three decades, is now the last big goal of a brutal, but brilliantly successful, two-year campaign. It may not be easy. | | Disclaimer: | | These articles and reports do not necessarily express the views of OfERR.
