Limassol Under Surveillance Following Akrotiri Attack

Following the drone attack on Akrotiri, Limassol is under increased surveillance. A British aircraft, RFR7144, is conducting continuous circular flights over the sea of Limassol, utilizing cutting-edge technology to detect suspicious movements in the air and at sea. This operation is a direct response to the attack that hit the runway at Akrotiri early Monday morning, placing Cyprus at the center of regional developments. The Shadow R.1 aircraft, equipped with advanced real-time information gathering systems, is the first line of defense for the British, scanning for any potential threat. The situation remains tense, with authorities on full alert.
