D Correct answer
Explanation

Elephant Pass is located in northern Sri Lanka, connecting the Jaffna Peninsula to the mainland. It was a strategically important causeway and was frequently in the news during the Sri Lankan Civil War (1983-2009) between the government and LTTE (Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam). The pass changed hands multiple times during the conflict and was a key battleground due to its strategic importance in controlling access to Jaffna.
