Mannakulam, a small village situated North-East of Kanakarayankulam has been identified as a gun position of LTTE by the Jayasikuru Troops. Launching the third and the most strenuous phase of the operation SL Army targeted the said village to nullify the enemy firepower which could yield a certain advantage in the latter stages of the battle. With much hope, commanders deployed Commandos to achieve the task. But the effort went awry as the terrorists ruthlessly retaliated resulting in the worst-ever Commando debacle in the history of the Regiment.
