He said two police constables were also wounded in a third mine attack in Vavuniya Thursday.

The three blasts came a day after the military carried out aerial bombings against suspected Tamil Tiger rebels in the island's northeastern district of Trincomalee.

The military said it was acting in self-defence after the guerrillas carried out a suicide bombing that targeted the head of the army, leaving him severely wounded.
