Five Palestinian men accused of operating a Hamas-linked cell and planning terrorist attacks against Israeli targets in Cyprus are due to appear in a Larnaca court today for a procedural hearing. Prosecutors are expected to suspend three separate cases and consolidate them into a single indictment covering all five defendants before referring the case to the Larnaca Assize Court. Today’s hearing will not mark the start of witness testimony. The investigation began on May 21 with the arrest of two men, ages 32 and 38, near Pentakomo.
