A serious traffic accident occurred last night in Famagusta. On Fevzi Çakmak Boulevard, a pedestrian was struck by a car — doctors describe his condition as critical.
According to the police, a 43-year-old double-cab pickup driver, while driving along the boulevard, failed to exercise due care and hit a 22-year-old man crossing the road from right to left. The impact was strong — the victim sustained severe injuries.
