- The Battle of Mullaitivu (Tamil: முல்லைத்தீவுச் சமர், romanized: Mullaittīvup Pōr; Sinhala: මුලතිව් සටන Mulativ Saṭana), also known as the First Battle of Mullaitivu and codenamed Operation Unceasing Waves (Tamil: ஓயாத அலைகள் நடவடிக்கை, romanized: Ōyāta Alaikaḷ Naṭavaṭikkai), was a battle between the militant Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE or Tamil Tigers) and the Sri Lankan military during the Sri Lankan Civil War for control of the military base in Mullaitivu in north-eastern Sri Lanka. The base was overrun by the LTTE on 18 July 1996 and, after a failed rescue operation involving all three forces, the Sri Lankan military abandoned the base, and control of much of Mullaitivu District, to the LTTE on 25 July 1996. Around 1,400 Sri Lankan troops were killed and large amounts of military equipment captured by the LTTE. Around 330 LTTE cadres were killed. (en)
- La bataille de Mullaitivu est livrée le 18 juillet 1996 entre les indépendantistes tamouls du Tigres de libération de l'Îlam tamoul et les forces armées sri lankaises durant la guerre civile du Sri Lanka. Attaquant par surprise la base de Mullaitivu, les indépendantistes tamouls remportent une grande victoire sur les troupes de Colombo. La quasi-totalité de la garnison est massacrée (1 200 tués sur 1 400 hommes) par les assaillants qui s'emparent en outre d'un butin de guerre énorme. Les civils tamouls sont attaqués avec une violence phénoménale de la part de l'armée qui fait aujourd'hui toujours polémique. (fr)
