Limassol port operating normally despite regional tensions

Limassol district local government organisation (EOA) president Yiannis Tsouloftas on Wednesday visited the DP World facilities at Limassol port, where he was briefed on operations and confirmed that all activities continue without disruption despite recent regional tensions.

During the visit to DP World at Limassol port, the president was informed about the current situation by Simon Pitout, chief executive officer of DP World Cyprus, and Doros Arestis, public relations director.

The visit focused on assessing the status of port operations and maritime activity at one of Cyprus’ most important logistics hubs.

Following the briefing, the EOA president said that all port operations are continuing normally, even amid recent unrest in the wider region.

“Despite the recent disturbances in the region, it is confirmed that all port operations continue normally and without interruption and that the port is fully staffed and operating under normal conditions for all commercial and shipping activities,” said Tsouloftas.

Moreover, the EOA president also referred to the role of European partners in supporting the sector.

“We appreciate the continued support from our European partners and remain committed to ensuring the safety and efficiency of shipping and port activities in Cyprus,” Tsouloftas said.
