Uilankulam is located around 5Km north of Thunukkai and it is also an LTTE's stronghold in Mullaittiuvu District. Fierce gun battles raged in this area during the past few days.Security forces reached a significant phase of the Wanni liberating offensive with this latest victory, as these areas were liberated for the first time in nearly three decades long fighting between security forces and terrorists. The gain of Thunukkai adds advantage to the security forces. Now the troops are positioned in striking distance of Mallavi, another vital terrorist's garrison along the Vellankaulam- Mankulam main road.
