10 March, 2020TRNC Assembly representatives sent letter to PACE regarding border gates closure
10 March, 2020The third protest action at the Lokmacı border gate since the Greek Cypriot Administration unilaterally closed four crossing points on 28 February was held yesterday (9th March).
Tension occurred between UN peacekeepers and Turkish Cypriot police on the Turkish side of the Lokmacı border gate due to the UN soldiers attempt to prevent Turkish Cypriot protestors from crossing into the buffer zone. The UN peacekeepers, which formed a line alongside the Turkish Cypriot Police were pushed back to the buffer zone by Turkish Cypriot police where they formed a human chain to prevent the protestors from moving forward.
