Accessories suspected to be that of an LTTE airplane have been recovered. This is the first time that the troops had succeeded in making such a detection.
It was located North East of the Iranamadu Reservoir where the captured air strip was found. The victory was achieved by soldiers of the 594th Brigade headed by Lt. Colonel Senaka Wijesuriya and under the guidance of Major Gen. Jagath Dias of the 59th Division. The troops earlier recovered several LTTE runways including those in Panikkankulam, Ampakamam, Pooneryn and Paranthan. Two days earlier, the troops seized an air strip built across the old Kandy Road.
