Cyprus: Workers to demonstrate in Nicosia June 27
Unionized workers to protest at Ministry of Finance in Nicosia, Cyprus, 10:00-12:00 June 27. Heightened security likely.
Unionized workers plan to protest at the Ministry of Finance (Apourgeio Oikonomikon) on Grigori Afxentiou in Nicosia 10:00-12:00 June 27. The purpose of the demonstration is to demand improved wages and career advancement opportunities. It was not immediately clear how many participants may attend.
Heightened security and localized transport disruptions are likely near the protest site. Though unlikely, low-level confrontations between demonstrators and law enforcement officers cannot be ruled out.
Avoid the affected area as a standard precaution. Allow additional time if traveling near the Ministry of Finance in the late morning or early afternoon. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers. Immediately depart the area at the first sign that any security disturbance may occur.
