The whole world is watching the US and Israel’s war with Iran. But no-one’s watching as attentively – or with such a knot in their stomach – as the Iranian diaspora, including of course in Cyprus.
According to figures supplied by the Iranian embassy, there are currently around 3,000 Iranian citizens in the Republic, of whom 90 are students, and around 15,000 in the north, of whom almost a third (4,500) are students.
