Pushpakala Thuraisingham (10 May 1973 – 10 August 1994; commonly known by the nom de guerre Captain Angayarkanni) was a Sri Lankan Tamil rebel and member of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), a separatist Tamil militant organisation in Sri Lanka. She was the LTTE's first female Black Tiger (suicide bomber).[1][2][3][4] She sunk a Sri Lankan Navy Surveillance Command Centre Ship in a suicide attack in the sea near Kankesanthurai. Her death is significant as later females joined the Tamil Tigers at all levels and played significant roles (including the Black Tigers).[5][6][7]
