Blasts blamed on Tamil Tiger rebels and riots that followed killed 13 people on Wednesday and injured dozens more in north-east Sri Lanka, officials said, raising fears peace talks might not happen and war might restart.
Two policemen died in a claymore mine ambush while one soldier and four civilians were killed in a blast in a crowded marketplace in the port town of Trincomalee, the army said. Another six people died in riots that followed.
