Extension of Stay for Jordanian Firefighting Aircraft in Cyprus
November 28, 2025
The Ministry of Defense plans to request an extension for the stay of Jordanian firefighting aircraft in Cyprus until mid-December. This decision is necessary due to high temperatures and dry conditions that increase the risk of fires. The aircraft have been operational since March and have significantly contributed to aerial firefighting efforts. Additionally, Cyprus has upgraded its fleet of firefighting resources, achieving the highest operational readiness ever. Collaborations with Jordan enhance overall effectiveness in combating fires.
