Nicosia EOA workers rescue kitten during storm in Dali

On Sunday, August 16, 2026, three emergency response teams from the Nicosia District Organization for Local Government (EOA) were deployed to the Dali area to address drainage issues caused by heavy rainfall. The crews were tasked with clearing storm drain grates and managing blockages in the rainwater sewer system to mitigate flooding risks across the region.

During these operations, workers discovered a newborn kitten abandoned on the road and successfully rescued the animal. A member of the EOA team, who owns a nursing cat, took responsibility for the kitten's care, providing it with a chance to survive. No further information regarding the kitten's recovery or future status was provided by the sources, as the primary focus remains on the completion of municipal infrastructure maintenance following the storm.
