The north’s ruling coalition on Friday morning took measures to order the postponement of strikes in essential services as Turkish Cypriot workers began a day-long general strike on Friday.
Workers at the ports of Famagusta and Kyrenia, air traffic controllers at Ercan (Tymbou) airport, employees of the police force, nurses, midwives, and employees of the north’s electricity authority Kib-Tek were all ordered back to work by decrees issued on Friday
