Cyprus: Striking cement workers protest in Kokkinotrimithia Dec. 2

Striking cement workers continue to protest in Kokkinotrimithia on Dec. 2. Members of the SEK labor union will likely continue a long-standing strike and protests in the coming days. The industrial action started in early November to demand increased pay for workers. Officials will likely deploy increased security to the site, following the injury of a striking worker, Dec. 2.

Heightened security and road closures will likely prompt localized transport disruptions. Further scuffles between striking protestors and non-striking workers are possible.
