The Missing Persons Committee has worked on the island for 10 years, giving comfort to the bereaved families of individuals who went missing. Many Turkish Cypriots lost their lives and many went missing as a result of the armed attacks, massacres, and genocide of the Greek Cypriots against the Turkish Cypriots, with the support of the then military junta in Greece between 1963-1974.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Committee on Missing Persons has now found a total of 1209 of 2002 missing persons since its excavation projects began.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A minute\u2019s silence was observed at the military ceremony.
