    Coup and Turkish invasion anniversary

    Nicosia, Jul 15 (CNA) -- Cyprus remembers and pays tribute today to all those who lost their life in defence of the Republic during the 1974 military coup against the democratically elected government of Cyprus which was followed five days later by Turkish invasion which resulted in the illegal occupation of 37 percent of the Republic's territory and its de facto division.

    The wailing of sirens was heard at 8.20 local time, the very time when the coup occurred and special commemoration services were held in all churches in the free areas of the Republic and prayers were said for those killed during the military coup, while at the same time leadership and people stress their determination not to accept the de facto division of the island.
