"Ground troops have positioned for a final thrust towards the remaining LTTE foothold," the ministry said.

It did not say if security forces suffered any casualties.

The LTTE did not comment on the fighting.

Government forces have pushed the guerrillas into a narrow bit of land and have said they hope to completely crush the guerrillas by April.
