COLOMBO, Sri Lanka, Feb. 3 (UPI) -- At least 46 Tamil Tiger rebels and two government soldiers have been killed in heavy clashes in northern Sri Lanka, the Media Center for National Security said.
Also, a female suicide bomber at a central rail terminal killed at least seven people and wounded nearly 100 others. A grenade attack earlier Sunday killed an as-yet undetermined number of people at a Colombo zoo.
Officials suspect the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, LTTE, are behind the attacks, but there was no immediate claim of responsibility by the group.
The Sri Lankan government postponed the Deyata Kirula exhibition until Feb. 7 due to the security situation in the country, Lanka Page reported.
