Occupying side's strategy regarding the buffer zone
May 3, 2026
The occupying side in Cyprus is taking actions in the buffer zone aimed at expanding the occupied territories. The Turkish plan involves violations justified by the claim that these areas belong to the pseudo-state. Discussions with the United Nations show that the occupying side insists on its claims. The military seems to want to establish its presence, as reflected in recent incidents in the area. Ongoing activity indicates that they do not intend to back down.
