On the September 10th, 2023, Antifasistiki march happened at Eleftheria Square in Nicosia against blatant fascist which showed fascist and racist responses against immigrants and non-locals in general, we sent the message in the entire Cyprus “ Fascism shall not pass!”. We marched together against a society built on solidarity. In continuation of the anti-fascist mobilisations of the last few days, we had issued another resounding response to the racist attacks and violent incidents targeting migrants at Chloraka and Limassol. The demonstration also took a stand against the biased media coverage and the attempts to whitewash acts of racist violence by describing the perpetrators as “hooligans”. We also standed against politicians and government officials who incite the masses and then pretend to be surprised when the situation escalates.

These fascist attacks are fuelled by the racist policies implemented by the state and the EU. The only thing that can stop them is the organising of society itself, the common front of all workers, both local and immigrant.
