Hundreds of protestors marched through the streets of Cyprus’s capital yesterday, demanding the UK to shut down its two military bases on the island.

The demonstration was fuelled by local anger over fears Britain’s sovereign bases have jeopardised the safety of Cypriots following a drone attack on RAF Akrotiri last Sunday.

The protest was followed by today’s arrival of the German frigate FGS Nordrhein-Westfalen at the port of Limassol, joining a growing fleet of international military vessels.
