The Alteration of Occupied Areas in Cyprus

October 12, 2024

The area east of occupied Kyrenia has undergone significant changes due to illegal developments that include hotels and residences. The regions of Agios Amvrosios, Kalograia, and Akanthou, which belong to Greek Cypriots, have lost their traditional character and have been substantially altered. This development began after 2004, further fueled by political developments and an increase in tourism from Russians and Europeans. Residents and property owners feel deep sorrow over this situation.
