To mark 16 years since the Sri Lankan military onslaught that massacred tens of thousands of Tamils, we revisit the final days leading up to the 18th of May 2009 – a date remembered around the world as ‘Tamil Genocide Remembrance Day’. 

Tamils in Grinsted, Denmark, held a memorial on May 11 to commemorate the victims of the Mullivakkal genocide. 

Candles were lit and flowers were laid to remember the tens of thousands of Tamils that were killed by Sri Lanka's military offensive in the final months of the armed conflict.
