Greek Cyprus hotel raises British security concerns

British military and intelligence officials have raised concerns that a Chinese-linked luxury resort in Greek Cyprus could be used as an observation point for RAF Akrotiri, The Telegraph reported on Aug. 28.

The concerns center on the location and height of City of Dreams Mediterranean near Limassol.

The resort, which opened in 2023, stands close to the British Sovereign Base Areas and its upper floors overlook parts of the air base, according to the newspaper.

Sources cited by The Telegraph said an observer using binoculars could monitor aircraft taking off and landing, as well as the movements of military personnel and officials.
