An attack on LTTE's Ralkudi camp in Sampur by members of the renegade Karuna faction has left 30 LTTE cadres killed, unconfirmed reports said.
On the night of April 25th, in the aftermath of the suicide attack on the Army Commander, security forces carried out an attack on the Sampur camp.
Trincomalee residents said they heard the sounds of gunfire and explosions last night.
Military spokesman Brigadier Prasad Samarasinghe said he cannot comment on the incident as the area in question is outside government held territory.
Meanwhile forces have recovered a claymore mine weighing 8 kilograms from Nelliadi, Jaffna. Two suspicious looking men had defied security force orders to stop and fled and the mine had been found when the security forces searched the area.
In another incident in Mannar, a claymore mine was exploded targeting troops returning after duty, but no one was injured as the mine was detonated prematurely.
