Like today, 43 years ago, on the eve of August 14, 1974, the second phase of the Turkish invasion of Cyprus began, after the shipwreck caused by the Turks in the Geneva negotiations.
Attila 2 completed his work by occupying Famagusta, Karpasia and Morphou and leading the inhabitants of these areas to exile.
For a day of remembrance and honor, for those who lost their lives for the homeland, but also for reflection, parties and organizations speak in their announcements, emphasizing the need for national unity to face the Turkish challenges and to find a solution.
Just like today, on August 14, 1996, 26-year-old Solomos Solomou, 26, fell dead from the bullets of the occupying forces, just three days after the murder of his cousin, Tassos Isaac, by Turkish soldiers, who beat him to death. zone in Deryneia, during an anti-occupation demonstration of Cypriot motorcyclists.
Solomos Solomou escaped from the Blue Helmets and entered the dead zone and tried to climb a mast to lower the Turkish flag, while other protesters tried to stop him.
Turkish snipers from the opposite Turkish outpost shot him and Solomou fell dead from a bullet in the neck.
