Description: Text transcribed from caption: PCO-46558 WAR-DAMAGED ORTHODOX CHURCHES ON CYPRUS NICOSIA -- The Church of St. George (top) and Makedonitissa Church, both near Nicosia, were heavily damaged during the fighting which followed the Turkish invasion of Cyprus last July. St. George was reportedly “deliberately” burned while the other church was bombarded by the Turks. During the invasion, which followed an attempted coup d’etat of the Cypriote government by the military government of Greece, which fell as a result of the blunder, Turkey captured the northern third of the island. Numerous Christian churches were damaged and destroyed during the fighting and large scale looting of holy icons and other religious treasures has been charged. In October it was reported that almost 200 Greek Orthodox churches in the Turkish-occupied part of Cyprus were either closed or being used by the Turks for non-religious purposes. Recently a World Council of Churches official who visited the island said that Christian and Muslim representatives have been guaranteed the right to investigate complaints of the desecration of churches and mosques on Cyprus.
