(October 01, Kilinochchi, Sri Lanka Guardian) I have eight children. When shells began falling in Nachchikuda, Mulankavil area we left home and came to Jeyapuram. We then went to Anaivilunthan. After 10 days we went to Skanthapuram in Kilinochchi for one day and then we came here to Ananthapuram on 8 September. We displaced again on 17 September and went Visuvamadu. Each time we setup the shelter and then about 10 days later pull it all out, hire a tractor spending money to transport it again and the cycle repeats.
We cannot stay in a place when shells are falling. The children are very scared so we move even if it is at night. When we were in Visuvamadu they bombed and my mother’s shoulder joint was dislodged when she fell inside the bunker. So we came back.
I brought 10 cows with me from Nachchikuda hoping it will give an income to live on but I have lost all of them except one when I took them to the water hole. I searched everywhere but could not find them. Those cows would cost in excess of Rs 100,000.
I did rice cultivation and left it without harvesting and that was a big loss. We thought we could go and at least harvest the rice but apparently the army is shelling near our home so we cannot go to harvest. - Sri Lanka Guardian
