Fragments of looted frescoes repatriated in Nicosia

Minister of Transport, Communications and Works Vassiliki Anastasiadou handed over on Friday to Archbishop of Cyprus Chrysostomos four fragments of frescoes which she repatriated from the Hague earlier this week.

Two of the fragments have been identified as belonging to the church of Panagia Apsinthiotissa, a Greek Orthodox monastery situated in the Turkish occupied part of the island. The third one belongs to the Church of the Virgin Mary in the occupied village of Assia, in the Famagusta District.
