|
||||||
| Jaffna is the northernmost city in Sri Lanka, situated on the Jaffna peninsula and separated from India by Palk Strait. Inhabited mostly by Tamils, the city has been the focus of Tamil resistance to Sinhalese dominance of Sri Lanka. Attempts have been made to transform the peninsula into a separate state. | ||||||
