It looks like big war also started by the Turkish Cypriots side about ROC what has happened the islamic heritages which has been left in south Cyprus .
It looks like both sides will have hard times about claims.
It is very sad and I condemn all such attacks on people's cultural heritage. On the other hand, the Grand Mosque in the centre of Limassol is in good condition and is open for worship on a daily basis with a Syrian Imam. There is a second mosque that has a TC imam and is used for worship for Friday and Bayram prayers. I know of a number of other mosques in and around Limassol that are in good condition. So, on this side, not all the news is bad.
Tim ,
in here they are not talking about condition of the mosques . They are talking about how they have been looted . They are questioning what happened to carpets- kilims , hand written qoaran and other symbols in side the mosques. They are claiming that they were all well documented and they have list of the valuable heritages which are all stolen from the mosques.
