According to Kıbrıs gazetesi, there is no loss of life thankfully. The road from Esentepe to Girne was/is closed.

At the moment, the fire continues in the arsenal with explosions from the inside, shrapnel fragments are thrown at each explosion, entrances to the region are closed, a safe area is created. "There are individuals, but there is an ambulance at this point. The citizens of Arapköy have evacuated the village significantly for the measure, but there is no progressive fire. There is no fire spreading around."

At 04:16: In terms of security, Girne - Değirmenlik Highway and Acapulco junction were closed to Girne - Esentepe Highway traffic flow.

05:07: In his statement, the Police Press Officer said: Unless you are obliged to go to the area don't go

More roads are being closed, presumably so the emergency services can get in and out of the area as everyone heads over for a look.. Fez at Catalkoy have opened their doors for anyone stuck or needing respite

Does anyone know if the road is still closed to get to Alagadi area ?

We awoke at 2am to the start of this which I first thought was a storm but very soon realised it wasn't! Our house was rocked by the initial blast. I was convinced this morning that people on base at least would have been killed so am pleased to find this morning that is not the case.

As it is being reported as a fire in the armoury wouldn't you have thought that would have been an ideal place to have a fire detector and sprinkler system?

Cyrob, the coast road is closed in both directions

I take it the mountain road is closed? The reason I ask is that we are flying back to the TRNC today to Ozankoy.

Whilst I have no reason to doubt Yusef's helpful post, can anybody corroborate the statement from First Call Estate Agents that the coast road from Girne - Tatlisu is open for traffic, please? Thank you!
