They are building a new museum/city archive in Paphos, on the site of the Old Police Station. They are keeping its facade, extending it and adding landscaping and pathways. It is going to be fabulous once it is ready, and they must be nearly complete by now. In this film I walk around the perimeter of the site, before launching the drone for a birds-eye view

The United Kingdom has deployed six more fighter jets to its air force base in Akrotiri, according to reports on Saturday, with fears growing that the United States may launch a fresh round of strikes on Iran.
British newspaper The Times reported that a total of six F-35B fighter jets departed from the Royal Air Force’s base in Marham, Norfolk, for Cyprus on Friday, “to defend the base and sovereign base territories should the situation in the region become ‘hot’”.
