Sri Lanka Army (SLA) fired artillery shells throughout the whole day from all directions into civilian refuges on Monday February 02, 2009. At least one hundred civilians would have been killed or maimed in the indiscriminate barrage. The casualties are uncountable as the whole population is forced to reside inside the bunkers throughout the whole day. This Monday is the worst day of SLA shelling so far within the safety zone. More than 5,000 artillery shells and Multi Barrel Rocket Launcher (MBRL) rockets have been fired by the SLA in a single day. Sri Lanka Air Force (SLAF) bombers carried out four sorties of indiscriminate bombardment, also deploying cluster bombs, from morning till 2:00 p.m. Isn't GENOCIDE of Tamils?
Sinhala dominated Sri Lankan government agenda is to eliminate the entire Tamil populations and this is what Sri Lankan government is doing since 1948. Tamils in Eelam democratically decided to exercise their self determination and free them from the Sinhala Sri Lanka in 1977 (Ref. http://www.sangam.org/FB_HIST_DOCS/vaddukod.htm). Instead of accepting democracy, Sri Lanka wage war against Tamils and invaded their home land violating even basic human rights.
