- limassol stabbing — A 36-year-old Syrian man who was stabbed during an attack in Limassol last weekend is now out of danger and has regained consciousness, police reported on Wednesday.
The incident occurred shortly after 7pm on Saturday on Anexartisias street, a bustling area known for its cafés and shops. While standing outside a café, the victim was approached by three individuals, leading to an altercation.
According to police, during the confrontation, two of the attackers allegedly employed electric shock devices. A third individual escalated the situation by pulling out a knife and stabbing the victim in the shoulder blade. Emergency services quickly transported the injured man to a private hospital in Limassol, where he underwent surgery for a wound to his left shoulder blade. Initially classified as critical, his condition has since stabilised.
As of the latest updates, the victim is receiving treatment in hospital and is expected to provide a statement to investigators later today. Authorities have issued arrest warrants for two suspects linked to the attack, described as Lebanese nationals aged 20 and 30. Police are actively searching for these individuals, both of whom are known to law enforcement from previous incidents.
Beyond the stabbing, police are also investigating damage inflicted on a barbershop located on Anexartisias street, which is associated with the 30-year-old suspect. Investigators are examining the possibility that the damage could be related to the stabbing incident.
Lefteris Kyriakou, the operations director of Limassol police, stated that evidence connects at least one of the suspects to the attack. He confirmed that the investigation is ongoing to identify all individuals involved in this violent incident.
