Issues from Illegal Exploitation in Pentadaktylos
June 11, 2025
Unchecked exploitation of resources in Pentadaktylos is causing severe damage to the natural environment and poses a risk of unfair competition. The head of the Mines and Quarries Department emphasizes that the situation is dramatic and requires immediate intervention. The lack of control in occupied areas exacerbates the problem, as businesses operate without environmental or technical certification. There is a need to amend the Green Line Regulation to protect the natural resources of the Republic of Cyprus.
