  Europe which has a total population of 800 million is made up of 45 language based nation states. South Asia which has a total population of one billion, (1000 million) is comprised of four states. Who is preventing and therefore benefiting by limiting new nation-states in South Asia?

Two days of aerial bombing leaves two civilians dead and ten injured

Two days bombing over Vanni in three separate sorties on 5th and 6th February left two civilians dead and ten injured including a 11 year old school girl.

On 5 February Sri Lanka bombed areas of Kaiveli in Puthukudiyiruppu in Mullaithivu district in the morning. In this morning raid four civilians were injured and houses and trees were damaged.

The same afternoon the thickly populated Kilinochchi town was bombed. Two civilians were killed and four were injured. S Swaminathan aged 45 and Sinnarasa aged 60 are the two civilians killed in this bombing. More casualties were avoided because people took protection in the bunkers. Four homes were destroyed in this raid.

The next day morning on 6th February further bombing raids over Thiruvaiyaru near Kilinochchi injured two civilians including 11 year old school girl, Keerthana. According to the principal of the school in Thirivaiyaru, K Mathuranayagam, more than 50 bomb shrapnel fell inside the school classrooms. Since the full strength of students were not at school at the time due to the day being the school’s sports day more casualties were avoided.
