    IIRC the Tamil tigers literally popularized modern suicide bombings (and did the most of any group) and attacked a international airport .This war could have easily been avoided , it kept on getting worse after retaliating attacks by each side (which were justified by the other side's previous attacks) this cycle fueled aggression. It started with discrimination,then physical attacks,then organized battles ,then all out war and then genocide.

    A war of war crimes on both sides, a never-ending cycle of aggression and massacres

    There are detailed information of last months of war documented in most of the local and international media up to daily or at lest weekly resolution. It did not just disappear suddenly as it feels like seen in this video. It was a fully determined and well executed process rather than previous attempts of bruteforce.

    Do the Karabakh war 2020 every day
  • Wait i thought it started in 1983 instead of 1966 Edit : the war ended on May 19th. As last year was the 11th year of the end of the war celebration with Prabhakaran's body was buried Edit 2: now I realised you started from the communist uprisings and then to the April Uprising (first Insurrection) and then to the civil war

Edit...I see great Britain, north korea, south africa, iraq, florida and Cuba. And the north sri lanka cutouts....im seeing or connecting the other 2

    Its not true the trapped civilians lack access to food and medicine. It is true about the shelter, But the food medicine and medical services were provided by the Sri Lankan government indiscriminately. Cement and other building materials were also accessible to everybody, but the LTTE made bunkers out of the relief goods instead of making housing for people.
