Cypriot intercommunal violence - Turkish fighter jets overflew Nicosia in a show of support
Time: Wednesday Dec 25, 1963
Place: Cyprus
Details: On Christmas day, Turkish fighter jets overflew Nicosia in a show of support. Finally it was agreed to allow a force of 2,700 British soldiers to help enforce a ceasefire. In the next days, a "buffer zone" was created in Nicosia, and a British officer marked a line on a map with green ink, separating the two sides of the city, which was the beginning of the "Green Line". Fighting continued across the island for the next several weeks.
