Cyprus police and army monitor situation after Turkey's coup attempt

The Cyprus Police, the National Guard and all security forces were mobilised following the military coup attempt, CNA has learned.

A source told CNA that the competent authorities were on high alert, mainly because the northern part of the island, is occupied by the Turkish forces since the 1974 invasion.

Acting President Demetris Syllouris presided over a meeting in the presence of the Ministers of Public Order, Defence and Foreign Affairs and precautionary measures were taken.

Meetings also took place at the Police and National Guard headquarters.

So far, nothing, out of the ordinary, has been spotted.
