October 24, 2026
The process of legalizing the Monastery of Saints Ephraim and Catherine in Cape Greco is in its final stage, despite objections. The Cyprus Scientific and Technical Chamber (ETEK) demands the demolition of illegal constructions, emphasizing the need for adherence to the law. Both the Department of Environment and the Department of Town Planning have submitted negative recommendations regarding the application. The ETEK president stressed that the legalization of illegal constructions undermines the planning system. Authorities urge the government to protect nature and uphold the laws.
