🧵 (1) This week, we remember Black July. On 24 July 1983, the deadliest state backed anti-Tamil pogrom in Sri Lanka’s history began. 5,683 Tamils were killed, and a Genocide was set into motion. 18000 homes were burned, 5000 shops destroyed, 150000 made homeless #TamilGenocide

BLACK JULY 1983 | கறுப்பு ஜூலை 1983 - 3000+ Tamil killed - stripped naked - burned alive - many women raped - 18'000 Tamil homes destroyed - 5000 Tamil businesses destroyed - up to 150'000 displaced We remember.

Government backed Sinhalese thugs were brought into Jaffna today to celebrate and mock the pain of Eelam Tamils, even as we mark 42 years since Black July when over 3000 Tamils were butchered with state support. Their joy is built on our grief.

🧵 Thread: Images from Black July A glimpse into genocide July 1983, Sri Lanka Thousands of Tamil lives lost, voices silenced, never forgotten. #TamilGenocide #BlackJuly

What are the editorial standards in Indian media? They contradicted themselves in this screenshot. The LTTE was never seen as a paramilitary group. This as posted by WikiLeaks clearly refers to the EPDP. That they just jump to the LTTE places doubt in their security credibility.

The second image shows Sri Lankan troops bayoneting innocent Tamil civilians to death in the south. Despite their faces and identities being clearly visible, no one was punished. To us, their forces are and will always remain murderers and rapists.

Way to prove our point. Rape is the only way Sinhalese incels get some action and they aren’t even hiding it.

Among those hacked, raped, and killed by Sinhalese mobs in Black July were Indian citizens. Was any justice sought to identify and punish those who attacked lawful Indian nationals abroad, or was it ignored to avoid upsetting little brother Sri Lanka?

A powerful BBC video filmed during the initial days of the 1983 Black July pogrom. If you want to quickly understand the basics of the Eelam conflict up to that point, I highly recommend taking 2 minutes to watch it.

It’s not new for Sinhalese to dance when Tamils face tragedies They dance on the commemoration of the 1983 Black July pogrom just as they danced during the 2009 Mullivaikkal massacre That’s how sadistic Rakshasas enjoy human suffering Observe how vile their dance and face are

Yes, there’s something eerily demonic about them. Tamil genocide survivors have remarked on this.

Today marks the 42nd anniversary of Black July, the largest anti-Tamil pogrom in history, where nearly 3,000 people, mostly Hindus, were killed in Sri Lanka by Sinhala Buddhists mobs facilitated by the govt. Justice remains unserved, and remembrance is prohibited in Sri Lanka.

The eyewitness account of Eli Skarstein, a tourist in Sri Lanka during Black July, describes how innocent Tamils were burned alive by Sinhala mobs, with the complicity of the police. #TamilGenocide #BlackJuly

Chemmani Mass Grave Excavation – Phase 2, Day 19 The excavation at the Chemmani mass grave site continued today (July 24). Three more human skeletons were identified, bringing the total number of discovered skeletons to 88, with 76 fully exhumed so far. #chemmanimassgrave

COLOMBO BANDARANAIKE AIRPORT ATTACK Katunayake, Sri Lanka, 24 years ago today. The 18th anniversary of the 1983 anti-Tamil pogrom. Twenty-six aircraft damaged or destroyed. Fourteen LTTE commandos martyred. Zero civilian casualties. “The thirst of Tigers…Tamil Eelam!”

An Eelam Tamil mother and her two children were found dead in a well in Mullaitivu. The north has among the highest suicide rates on the island. Ongoing militarization and the army's grip over local livelihoods are suspected to be driving such tragedies.
