Over 1,400 refugees arrive in Cyprus due to war
Between June 12 and 24, a total of 1,448 people arrived in Cyprus on 190 yachts due to the war between Israel and Iran. Of these, 617 individuals moved to the south between June 20 and 24, most of whom were foreign nationals using South Cyprus as a transit route.
Reports indicate that approximately 1,200 Israelis had left Cyprus as of yesterday.
The report notes that security measures at Larnaca port remain at the highest level, and those wishing to return to Israel by air are waiting at the airport. Some flights were cancelled yesterday, and a decision on whether flights will proceed today will depend on the situation.
