Turkish Cypriot leader Ersin Tatar will attend an event at Kokkina on Thursday to mark 60 years since the bombing of Tylliria in 1964 when, from August 7 to 9, Turkish air forces dropped napalm bombs on villages in the area.
Tatar will be among speakers at the event, which will include the laying of wreaths at the graves of the fallen.
Every year, hundreds of Turkish Cypriots are bused to the event. Last year, Tatar was flown to Kokkina by helicopter, while other officials arrived by land and sea.
