Relocation of the Mari community: Concerns for the residents

April 12, 2025

The Mari community is facing the risk of relocation, as refugee residents are urged to find new housing. The government is offering plots in Zygi and financial assistance, but the residents' circumstances have changed due to age and economic factors. There are concerns that older residents may not be able to relocate and could end up on the streets. The issue will be addressed by the Larnaca District Officer, who will inform residents about government actions.
