An explosion occurred at a florist shop in Limassol in the early hours of the morning, causing significant damage to the shop's facade, a nearby cafe, and a neighbor's vehicle. The 49-year-old owner of the flower shop expressed shock and ignorance regarding the motives of the perpetrators. The explosion was caused by a low-power improvised explosive device. The scene remains cordoned off, and investigations are underway by the Police, with the participation of the TAE and a bomb disposal expert.
