Security forces leading a major offensive to capture the Tamil Tiger political capital of Kilinochchi had opened another front in the neighbouring Mullaittivu district where the Tigers maintain their main military facilities.

"Troops entered the sea Tiger bastion of Alampil, located about 10 kilometres (six miles) south of Mullaittivu (town) this morning," the ministry said in a statement.

It gave no details of casualties, but said the guerrillas had used Alampil as a key sea port to land supplies.

"Mullaittivu has become untenable as the fall of Alampil would facilitate the assault on Mullaittivu," the ministry said.

There was no immediate word from the Tigers, who are known to operate a fleet of vessels to smuggle in weapons.

Last year, Sri Lanka's navy claimed it had destroyed at least 10 ships of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE)
