As Cyprus grapples with one of its worst wildfire disasters in decades, solidarity across the Limassol district has been swift and profound. With over 120 square kilometers scorched, two lives lost, and entire villages evacuated, the humanitarian response has been mobilized at full scale. Civil society, municipal authorities, and the private sector have established an extensive network of shelters, aid centers, and emergency coordination points. Here’s the most up-to-date guide to the support available.
The Limassol Provincial Administration has established telephone lines for damage reports: 25806405, 25806459, 25806426, 25806422.
