THE United States condemns today’s suicide attack on a government center that was registering Internally Displaced Persons who had managed to exit the conflict area in northern Sri Lanka. This apparent effort by the LTTE to discourage Tamils from leaving the conflict area killed and wounded many Tamil civilians.

The United States calls on the LTTE to allow civilians freedom of movement. The United States also urges the Government of Sri Lanka to ensure that all IDPs who leave the conflict area are registered and transferred in a transparent manner to temporary camps in accordance with international standards.
