Breakaway guerrillas attacked a Tamil Tiger camp in eastern Sri Lanka on Wednesday killing at least two officials of the main rebel organisation, the island’s military said. Military spokesman Brig Nalin Witharanage said intercepted rebel communication revealed that followers of a breakaway faction attacked officials of the main Tamil rebel group - the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam - in a village 25 kilometres into rebel-held territory from the town of Welikanda. Witharanage said the breakaway rebels took two rifles. Tamil Tigers have made no comment about the alleged incident. Scores of people - Tamil Tigers, breakaway rebels, politicians opposing the rebels, and civilians - have been killed despite a 2002 cease-fire. Violence escalated after a rebel leader and some 6,000 followers split away from the LTTE in March 2004.
