Traffic incidents and emergency responses in Cyprus

Over the past 48 hours, several incidents have occurred across Cyprus, prompting emergency responses. On November 10, a collision on the Evrychou – Astromeritis road led to the closure of the section from Atsas toward Astromeritis. On the morning of November 11, a multi-vehicle accident on the Limassol – Nicosia highway near Chalepianes forced the temporary closure of the middle lane. Although the lane has since reopened, heavy traffic persists in the area.

In a separate incident at 03:27 on November 11, two people were injured when their vehicle veered off the road in Polis Chrysochous, Paphos district, struck trees, and ended up in a field. Both individuals were rescued and transported to Paphos General Hospital for treatment. The cause of the crash remains under investigation.

Additionally, the Fire Service responded to multiple calls, including a house fire in Pano Akourdalia caused by a chimney flue, and a fire involving stored hay bales between Dromolaxia and Kiti in the Larnaca district. No injuries were reported in the fires, and investigations into the causes of these incidents are currently ongoing.
