Search Continues for Missing Russian Businessman – Drones and British Bases Involved

The search for the 56-year-old Russian businessman who disappeared on January 7th in the Limassol area continues for a fourth day, with the assistance of drones and the British Base. The search is focused on the Pissouri area, particularly Cape Aspro, where the signal from his mobile phone was last detected. So far, there is no evidence of criminal activity, but as time passes, hopes of finding him alive are diminishing. Simultaneously, the Holy Synod awaits confirmation that the suspended Metropolitan of Tychikos has appealed to the Supreme Court against the decision to remove him, which could lead to his defrocking.
