(Nicosia, July 15 2025) – A double cabin vehicle, that will be used for the needs of the Excavation Teams of CMP, was received today from Toyota dealership in Nicosia, as a donation from Stelios Philanthropic Foundation to the Committee on Missing Persons. Last year Stelios Foundation donated an excavator to the Committee, contributing to the intensification of its operational efforts.
The CMP was established in 1981 under the auspices of the United Nations, following an agreement between the two Communities, after a call by the United Nations General Assembly in two resolutions. Through the CMP’s project 1055 individuals from both communities of Cyprus have been identified so far and their remains were returned to the families for dignified burials.
The CMP Project on the Exhumation, Identification and Return of Remains of Missing Persons in Cyprus became operational in 2006 and is co-funded by the European Union.
CMP relies on donor support to implement its bi-communal project that alleviates the suffering of the concerned families.
