Army building road in Mullaitivu
As the war fast approached its finish, civilians trapped by the LTTE
began to pour out. Many of them, in order to reach Government lines, had
to cross Nanthikandal lagoon in hip-deep water. In the pictures here,
the Army is building a road across a narrow stretch of the lagoon,
to facilitate civilian movement.
