Tigers evolve: The Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam's developing suicide attack methods
Article Abstract:
No insurgent group is better at tactical innovation in land as well as maritime suicide operations than the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam's who change their modus operandi effectively each time the Sri Lankan government institutes new anti-terrorist measures. Counter-terrorist agencies would do well to take pre-emptive action to diffuse the threat posed by such tactical developments by terrorists.
