Description
Sirens ring out in Cyprus at 05:20 GMT to mark the coup backed by Greece’s junta against Archbishop Makarios III, the first president of the Republic of Cyprus, and the Turkish invasion five days later. Cyprus has been divided since 1974, when Turkey occupied its northern third in response to a coup orchestrated by a military junta that sought to annex the island to Greece. IMAGES
