Cypriot police have conducted several operations between July 21 and July 25, 2026, leading to multiple arrests across the country for drug-related offenses and theft. In one major operation, authorities arrested three men aged 50, 42, and 29 for methamphetamine trafficking; 150 grams of the substance were seized during a coordinated interception in the Paphos, Limassol, and Larnaca districts. Separately, a 47-year-old man was arrested in western Limassol after being found with over 60 grams of crystal methamphetamine; he has been remanded for five days.

In another incident in Larnaca, police arrested two 34-year-old men following a high-speed chase that ended when their vehicle crashed into a ditch. Officers discovered approximately 1.57 kilograms of cocaine inside the car, leading to an eight-day detention order issued by the Larnaca District Court. Additionally, local authorities are seeking 24-year-old Kyrillos Zoria Lambrou regarding a theft committed on July 18 in Nicosia. Investigations into these cases remain ongoing, with further legal proceedings expected as the suspects appear before the judicial authorities.
