The Tamil Tigers have fought since 1983 for an independent state for the Tamil minority, which suffered decades of marginalization at the hands of governments dominated by the Sinhalese majority. With most communication to the north severed, rebel spokesmen could not be reached for comment. ![]() Many speak Tamil but the community has largely stayed out of the war. ![]() Muslims, many of them descendants of Arab or Indian traders, make up about 7 per cent of Sri Lanka's population. In one of the bloodiest incidents, suspected rebels attacked a mosque in an eastern town in 1990 with guns, grenades and machetes, killing 140 worshippers. However, the Tamil Tigers used violence to drive many Muslims and ethnic Sinhalese, who are mainly Buddhist, from areas dominated by Tamils, who are mostly Hindu. There was no indication Muslims were specifically targeted yesterday. Heavy artillery attacks yesterday killed at least 49 ethnic Tamil civilians and wounded hundreds of others, the top government health official in the war zone said. If the assault was carried out by the Tigers, it shows that the guerrillas can still launch strikes far from their traditional strongholds in the north and east even as they face battlefield defeat.Īs the military has pushed the rebels into an ever-shrinking sliver of territory in the north, human rights and aid groups have voiced concern for the fate of the tens of thousands of civilians trapped in the pocket. Officials claimed the rebels had grown desperate in the face of an army offensive that has driven them close to defeat after more than 25 years of civil war. The government blamed Tamil Tiger separatists for the blast, which wounded 45 other people. President Mahinda Rajapaksa's office said selecting a mosque on an Islamic festival for the attack showed the rebels' 'hatred' of Muslims and strengthened the government's resolve to defeat them.
