Activists led by Cyprus Peace Council are reportedly protesting at the Royal Air Force base in Akrotiri on Jan. 14; demonstrators are denouncing alleged RAF activity in support of Israel during the conflict in Gaza. The number of participants remains unclear; however, several hundred people are likely to be participating.
Authorities will likely deploy increased security to monitor the gathering. Localised transport disruptions are possible. Minor confrontations between law enforcement officers and demonstrators are possible.
