Akrotiri Village Evacuation
===========================

The Cypriot village of Akrotiri was evacuated due to British base operations, forcing residents to leave their homes and find refuge elsewhere.

A 2026 drone strike on the base

John Kiriakou says a drone that hit the UK's Akrotiri base in Cyprus was likely an Israeli operation, staged to increase American, British, Cypriot, and Greek interest in the region, and initially, falsely, blamed on Iran: "I make that the Israelis decided we need to get the Americans, the British, the Cypriots, the Greeks more interested. We're going to send a drone... and then we're going to blame it on the Iranians."
