Sirens sounded again in Akrotiri, prompting an alert among citizens. The alarm was lifted quickly, but the incident highlighted the need for vigilance. The Mayor of Kourio, Pantelis Georgiou, emphasized that citizens must treat each alarm as a real threat and avoid complacency. Schools in the area will remain closed until Friday, and students are expected to be temporarily relocated to the school in Kolossi. Approximately 300 people are being accommodated in hotels, with the accommodation costs covered by the Republic of Cyprus, possibly with a small contribution from the British Bases.
