Two civilians were killed in a claymore mine blast in LTTE held village of Mullikulam, northwest of Vavuniya, Thursday. LTTE sources blamed Sri Lanka Army's Deep Penetration Unit for the attack.

The civilians who were killed in the mine blast are yet to be identified.

In a similar attack in January this year, LTTE's Vavuniya West area political head, Major Jeyanthan and a civilian were killed.

The LTTE blamed SLA's deep penetration unit operating from the Iranai Illuppaikulam SLA base for the attack.
