The plight of civilians trapped between the opposing forces of the Sri Lankan army and the Tamil Tigers is causing increasing concern in the international community.

There are calls for camps housing people fleeing fighting in northern Sri Lanka to to be run by civilians and not the military.

Despite civilians being kept in a 'no fire zone', it has been reported that between 120,000 and 350,000 civilians are caught in the conflict zone. The Internatioanl Red Cross says at least 300 civilains have been killed so far.

Al Jazeera's Tony Birtley has more from Colombo.

  • As the guy said the civilians are paying the price. There is nothing fun about war. We are all human lets show some love. I believe that one day that tamils and sinhalese can live together in peace. One day there will be equality between the two. One day it will be said by our children's children how peaceful and friednly Sri Lanka is. One day my brothers and sisters, one day.......

    Peace

    Leader was an uneducated "Big Fat Pig" named GayBakaran.

    In 1983 He killed 13 soldiers & started a "Big Fuck" called PEELAM War

    He killed lots of peole.

    Great King Mahinda pushed a Cyanide capsule in his ass & Fucked him with Multibarrels up 2 the throat

  • overbreeding, What is that mean? Pls explain.

  • xt steps that must be taken:

    1) Diaspora Tamils who support LTTE will lose SL citizenship and be barred from even taking a holiday in SL

    2) Norwegians and other pro-LTTE nationals barred from SL

    3) One million Sinhalese given ex-LTTE lands in the Wanni. Build a Vihara on every LTTE graveyard after it is demolished

    4) Jaffna and other northern towns given new Sinhalese names

    5) Compulsory birth control program in north-east to stop Tamils overbreeding

    6) Deport Eelamists Tamils from SL
