The Sri Lanka Army has started training its newest Division, the 61 Div. Last year and this year, the Army managed to recruit over 35,000 youth. It raised several new Regiments, including 9 Armoured Corp, which is now undergoing Battalion Training at Maduru Oya Combat Training School (CTS).
A battalion training involves around 750-1000 officers and men in live firing, inclusive of heavy guns, close air support simulations etc to ready troops for actual combat. For many years during war, the Army was unable to retrain its frontline troops through such trainings. Even though a war is ongoing, the large numbers recruited into the Army has enabled Battalion Trainings even at the height of war.
Meanwhile civilian hardships in LTTE areas has increased to an unbearable level. Unknown to southern dwellers, the LTTE too is suffering from same sabotage issues in areas under its control. Daily road clearing operations using forced labour is a familiar sight. Many areas are demarcated 'High Security Zones'. But the most hardships are being experienced by new recruits to the LTTE. Due to Special Forces ambushes (LRRP) and air raids, many senior Tiger leaders hardly ever visit the frontline and have left one or two experienced cadres to control platoons of fresh recruits. Like lambs to slaughter, it is only a mater of time until these young recruits end their lives in trenches they themselves dug.
Meanwhile further confirmation regarding the Thachcnamarandamadu attack has come to light. Sources close to DefenceWire confirmed that only one Special Forces attack was launched in the vicinity on that day. This attack was on an LTTE 'Canter' Truck transporting cadres to the battlefield. The attack to which the Army is blamed for is mentioned in a letter sent to the UN by LTTE Police and Peace chief Nadesan. Senior officers expressed severe anger at the failure of government bureaucrats and propaganda machine to defend the Army against what they called 'blatant lies' by the LTTE, some NGOs and a section of the 'internationals'.

Even training 99 Div is not going to win this war against the Tamils. The faster your people learn it the better. But alas, that won't happen. 400+ years colonial rule will reappear once its apparent Sinhalese cannot rule themselves and there needs to be demarcation of borders for a Tamil state.
'blatant lies' by DefenceLier, but what to do stupid Government ministers, unfortunately, they couldn't make that story up soon enough. but yea, good start.
You lost your creditibilty DefenceLier, so stop trying, no no , don't stop, I need a website to start and end my day happy! :D
keep it up looser :D lol
Defencewire,
[ Senior officers expressed severe anger at the failure of government bureaucrats and propaganda machine to defend the Army against what they called 'blatant lies' by the LTTE, some NGOs and a section of the 'internationals'. ]
When you are fighting with a terrorist organization like LTTE, Ground, Air and Sea attacks are not enough. You must have good counter attack for false propaganda organized by the LTTE, some NGOs and a section of the 'internationals' (as mentioned by DW). GOSL must think about this very seriously. Now the time has come for this I would like to request from Hon. President, Please do something about this before it is too late.
Thanks DW,
Great to hear armor is getting a new corps. What battalions/brigades make up the 61st? if that information is ok to be shared.
We need to place combat medics at platoon level if possible or at least @ company level with a field aid station attached to each battalion. Is there a similar organization existing already?
A marksman team for each Company would also help in tactical situations dont you think?
I should ask these self confessed 'military Einsteins' in this forum, if according to Ponseka, they will march through and finish off the tigers in 5 months, why bother with 61st Division ?
This another case of fooling the masses to buy unnecessary crap so that your politicians can handily make some commissions....
Seriously, who is fooling whom ?
As always, a nice write-up defencewire. The Army is now working according to a carefully thought out strategic plan.

'sathurgae avamana mithurage pasasumata vada vatee.'-sorry don't know to put this in kadda.
he he... :)
the way stupid peelamist tiger boot lickers are whining here is enough proof to show how their tiger friends are getting whacked daily :) :)
DW... let the fools bark, whine or whatever else the wanna do... :)
casc..absolutely!!:):)
upul,
the idea of the extra soldiers is to open several other fronts..because even the soldiers suffer exhaustion and need abreak..so we need the extra divs to keep the operation continuous as opposed to "piecework".
How is it on the LTTE frontlines to the conscripts get breaks and enough food?
Hemantha,
read this joke..recently..from my contacts.. i learn that the LTTE supporting diasphora (tamil british citizens holding british passports) are holding protests for tamil rights in SLanka?..if they were really bothered about rights of tamil citizens in the north then they would use their money to help the northern people instead of financing the LTTE.
upul change your name to read as Ponnaiya.
then ask ??????
Sri Lankan,
Those Brits, they will learn their lesson in a hard way after we crush LTTE. I am pretty sure LTTE (criminals) would become a Mafia like organization in Britain and Canada.
Hemantha,
This was vp's dream..to make his smuggling empire international..what has happened to the LTTE supporting diasphora reminds me of what mrs Sirimavo Bandaranayke(mrs B :)) said many many years ago.."when you catch a tigers tail you cant let go because if you do it will bite".The tamil diasphora consists of TMVP,EDPD,etc etc..i really feel sorry for them..we just dont want LTTE diasphora in SLanka ever again..they can stay where they are overseas..if they have problems with their LTTE godfathers then that has got nothing to do with us in SLanaka..what do you say.."once bitten twice shy"
Upul/Hemantha, Check these two links, find your self, who's the Impostor!!

nilupul,
One of the greatest discoveries by LTTE is time travel. We went back in time implanted the photo from 2007 in Mannar to a website about Iraq in 2006. Ask any body from Eelam, specially my current home LNP how LTTE is winning the game all the way.

Hot news for you
see what will happen in future.
LTTE has decided to change the official web site since someone has hacked it. Here is the link for new web site.

**Terrorists Creep Into Jungles with Their Dead Cadres**
WANNI: FRESH ROUNDS of fighting that were waging in the WANNI theatre of terrorist violence in the past twenty-four hours ending Tuesday (5) mid noon inflicted death and damage to scores of Tiger terrorists.
In total at least 22 Tiger terrorists lost their lives in separate clashes. In the first one in VEDAMAKILAM, north of OMANTHAI a column of troops on foot patrol in the area came across a pocket of Tiger terrorists who have secretly approached the military defence lines at about 7.35 a.m. on Monday (4). Troops opened fire immediately and killed one terrorist forcing other cadres to vacate the area.
No injuries were reported to soldiers in the incident.
Fresh fighting in Sri Lanka kills 20 rebels, 2 soldiers, military says

7 missing with Dora? casualties of their own action, planting underwater mines. Or really?
Maybe those 7 have been kidnap? or ran away with FAC so they can sell those? SLA's are good thief’s, shame shame they even steal "toilets" from Jaffna's houses and send them via ship to their villages. :D how sad! and bunch of fools on the net calling it "defense victory" LOL
Some interesting stats.
"The LTTE lost about 80,000 tons of mortar and artillery when seven of its Wanni bound ships were sunk by the Navy in the recent past. Three of its aircraft were destroyed during raids by the Air Force and 25 of their self-styled lieutenants have been killed. Our intelligence units are spot on. The LTTE is cornered and can do nothing about it", the sources asserted.
If the LTTE is on the run, what is delaying mopping up operations and why do you need five more months? – "We want to minimise casualties", the sources said.

Ram,
Don't shout like that,
I know all about your TOILET business, every day you are working inside 'AC' toilets.
"upul" you shameful impostor, get a life, seriously..
DefenceLiar could spout all these military victories crap but the ground reality is a different story. I also agree with ram, I have verified that a couple of defencewire news items are outright LIES.....
upul,
Did we ask you to believe us? You are hilarious!
DW that is virtual declaration of the sincerity or the lackthereof of the site....
guys
why are you fighting :(
35 killed in Lanka clashes, Air Force hits two LTTE targets

upul,
Yeah, all this work is crap. Your Eelam is attainable in 2008. Tamils are the greatest race on earth (like Nazis in Germany). Good luck and don't come back! If you do, You will be deleted.

DEFENCEWIRE...... at last.....phew.... that took long time...
The fact that DW does not want me to explain why I think a number of his news items are false is a little troubling no ? Instead he says hell with free speech and wants to delete peoples comments.
Its seems DW is advocating dictatorship, where he wants to control everyones thoughts. Good luck with that idea!
and for your information, I never said "Tamils were the greatest" nor did seek to make any comparisons to NAZI Germany. That fact that you try to compare the events of NAZI Germany to Sri Lanka is a loose loose argument for you. 12 million people were killed en masse by that regime and now you seem to make equivalence of that regime with Tamil rebels ? The fact that you make this comparison shows complete ignorance of world events to say the least.
