Unidentified LTTE operatives hurled hand grenades at a SLA route patrol along the Parameshwaran - Kaladdy main road in Jaffna town area in proximity of the Jaffna University and reportedly have fled taking cover among commuters and civilians present, on Wednesday at around 7.p.m.

According to Jaffna security sources, a grenade has exploded but no damages were caused to civilian or security forces personnel.

Troops have refrained from retaliating avoiding any civilian fatalities, security sources said. Tension prevailed in the area and among many University students who were engaged in their evening studies.

Troops cordoned off the area and recovered an unexploded hand grenade during search operations conducted.
