Turkish Army Trespasses The UN Buffer Zone In Cyprus
A Turkish army outpost is seen behind the buffer zone in Nicosia, Cyprus, on November 30, 2023. The Turkish army installed a camera and the flags of Turkey and the so-called ''Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus'' on the roof of an abandoned house, known as ''the house of Christalla,'' inside the UN buffer zone two days ago. This area is officially the territory of the Republic of Cyprus, given voluntarily to the UN for peacekeeping reasons. As this act constitutes a trespass of the buffer zone status quo, the Republic of Cyprus is demanding that the UN troops act accordingly to revert this action and remove the camera and the flags.
