⚖️ Lawyers vs. Government: Cyprus Bar Association threatens legal action over tax reform
The Cyprus Bar Association has strongly opposed the government’s proposed tax reform, arguing that the changes not only complicate the system but also breach the Constitution and EU law by restricting taxpayers’ rights. The Bar warns it is ready to pursue all national and European legal mechanisms to block the reform. Lawyers demand transparent dialogue with society and the involvement of independent experts.

✊ General Strike in Cyprus: Unions Demand Full Restoration of ATA, Airports, Schools, and Hospitals Disrupted
Today, September 11, from 11:00 to 14:00, Cyprus is witnessing a nationwide strike.

Thirteen trade unions are demanding the full reinstatement of the wage indexation system (ATA). Slogans such as “ATA for everyone” and “ATA in its true spirit” symbolize the protest and the unity of workers.

📍 Demonstrations are taking place simultaneously:
• Nicosia — outside the Ministry of Finance
• Limassol — near the Administrative Building
• Larnaca — at the District Administration
• Paralimni — at the local Ministry of Labour office
• Paphos — at the District Administration

⚠️ Affected sectors:
• Airports: Over 50 flights from Larnaca and Paphos cancelled or rescheduled, impacting more than 15,000 passengers, including Jazeera Airways (Kuwait), Qatar Airways (Doha), and Emirates (Dubai–Larnaca–Malta). Extra staff will be deployed after 14:00.
• Schools: All primary and secondary schools closed at 11:00. Parents had to pick up children themselves, with no return bus routes. Meals in after-school and special education programs suspended.
• Hospitals: State hospitals and clinics closed between 11:00 and 14:00. Routine operations and appointments postponed, though emergency services remain available.
• Transport: Bus schedules disrupted across Cyprus; passengers advised to expect delays and cancellations.
• Public services: Citizen service centers closed during strike hours. Scheduled appointments rescheduled and citizens notified.

🚓 Traffic: Police warn of congestion near protest sites and urge drivers to follow instructions to maintain order.

⚖️ Authorities remind workers that strike hours will be deducted from wages. Still, unions stress that mass participation sends a clear message: abandoning ATA is unacceptable.

✈️ “Hell in Larnaca: furious passengers, endless queues — chaos engulfs the airport after strike!”
Larnaca Airport turned into total chaos on the evening of September 11. The mass strike disrupted the schedule: dozens of flights were delayed, leaving thousands of passengers trapped in endless lines. Complaints poured in — people feared missing their flights while stuck for hours in the suffocating crowd at check-in and security.

Hermes Airports admitted that between 14:00 and 16:30 they had to urgently handle 20 rescheduled flights. The company called the overload “expected” and assured that after 17:00 the situation began to normalize. But passengers insist the strike exposed the airport’s complete unpreparedness for crises.

📸 Eyewitness photos confirm: Larnaca became an “airport of endurance tests.”
