(Lanka-e-News, September 28, 2008, 10.20 PM) Army sources say that the LTTE repeatedly launched CS gas attacks at the troops advancing towards Nachchikuda in the western coast of Kilinochchi district as the troops in another front were preparing to attack Kilinochchi town by tomorrow.
Army sources say that the LTTE attacked with CS gas aiming to further protect LTTE forward defense lines in Nachchikulam and Karambakulam. Army has not suffered heavily since the soldiers in operation were equipped with gas masks. The gas is more powerful than tear gas and can faint a breather although it is not fatal.
