Cyprus Fire

The Cyprus Forestry Department said Monday that a deadly wildfire, the island's worst in decades, was now "under full control".

A huge forest blaze raging in Cyprus has killed four people, destroyed homes and forced evacuations of villages as Greece, Israel and other countries deployed fire-fighting aircraft to the Mediterranean island.

The European Union on Saturday deployed aerial assistance to help Cyprus contain a huge forest fire raging north of the cities of Limassol and Larnaca, a blaze one official called the worst on record.

A small group of people who oppose 5G mobile telephone technology is likely responsible for arson attacks against four mobile telephone antenna installations in Cyprus' coastal town of Limassol, a Cypriot police official said Friday.

A Cypriot official says there's a glimmer of hope firefighters can contain a one of the nation's worst forest fires as many fronts have now been placed under control.
