In total, 2,003 people went missing during the intercommunal fighting between Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots in 1963/64 and the events which followed Turkey's invasion of Cyprus in 1974.
"I think what has been achieved, to have recovered 1,200 individuals and for almost a thousand families, to have restored to them their loved ones, it doesn’t wipe out what happened. But what it does is it enables the darkness to lift a little." "I'm so glad that the Irish Government is contributing to this important work here in Cyprus. I don’t think we could be contributing to anything more important than assisting the use of very fine young people trained in forensics and the sciences, who are analysing very difficult remains, and all about relieving the burden of the unanswered questions."
The CMP also employs a bi-communal forensic team of more than 60 Cypriot archaeologists, anthropologists and geneticists, who conduct excavations throughout the island and anthropological and genetic analyses of remains at the CMP Anthropological Laboratory.
