Nicosia. New Turkish provocation is about to cast a gloom on the opening of the checkpoint of the dead zone in Cyprus Limnitis, comments the Cypriot Phileleftheros daily.
The Turkish troops have started enlarging the small port close to the small Kokkina enclave, preparing the area for the celebrations on 8 August on the occasion of the Battle of Tiliria in 1964. According to military sources, however, increasing the depth of the port will make it possible for larger Turkish Navy vessels to berth in the small port.
