Turkish Cypriots were once again the victims of football hooliganism and Greek fanaticism in South Cyprus.
The racially motivated attacks, carried out frequently by various fanatic groups, are aimed at discouraging contact between Turkish Cypriots and Greek Cypriots as well as to disrupt ongoing talks to find a political settlement.
6 Turkish Cypriot number plated vehicles were stoned and attacked by Apoel football supporters in South Cyprus following a match between Ommonia-Apoel.
A Turkish Cypriot child was also injured in the attacks which took place in two separate locations.
According to a report issued by Turkish Cypriot police, 6 Turkish Cypriot vehicles were targeted in separate locations.
