Sri Lankan troops have killed 16 Tamil Tiger rebels and captured a rebel-held position in the island's north, officials said on Saturday.

 

A military spokesman said 17 people were injured on Saturday when Tamil Tiger rebels threw a hand grenade into a crowded street in northern Sri Lanka. "Seventeen civilians, including six females and two children, were injured when LTTE terrorists lobbed a hand grenade into a crowded street in Vavuniya," said military spokesman Brigadier Udaya Nanayakkara.
