Cyprus: Virus-infected migrants may be crossing into south

Asylum-seekers infected with coronavirus could be seeping through the porous cease-fire line in the ethnically divided Mediterranean island of Cyprus, the country’s health minister warned Sunday. Minister Constantinos Ioannou pointed to “a problem” after a number of migrants who recently crossed from the breakaway north to seek asylum in the internationally recognized south have tested positive for COVID-19. Ioannou said the government had ordered two months ago that all migrants undergo testing for COVID-19 before they enter reception centers.
