The Greek-Cypriot protestor was shot after he broke through barbed wire on the edge of the Turkish-Cypriot zone at Dherinia in eastern Cyprus. The shooting happened near the spot where another Greek-Cypriot, who was also protesting against the Turkish occupation of northern Cyprus, was beaten to death on Sunday (11/8). After his funeral on Wednesday (14/8) hundreds of protestors stormed into no-man's land in Dherinia and threw stones until the Turkish-Cypriot police opened fire. • • SHOWS: • • CYPRUS 14/8 • 00.00 WS demonstrators scuffle with UN soldiers; • 00.05 Man climbing up flagpole, is shot; • 00.09 Crowd running away; • 00.13 UN soldiers taking body back to wire; • 00.17 Pulling body under wire; • 00.20 WS of demonstrators; • 00.23 Injured soldier stretchered to ambulance; • 00.29 Priests at funeral; • 00.33 Family mourning; • 00.36 CU grieving women; • 00.38 Coffin carried through crowd; • 00.41 Massed bikers; • 00.45 Father supported by priest; • 00.50 Body lowered into grave; • 01.06 Mourners looking into grave; • • 01.10 Vision ends. • • Find out more about AP Archive: http://www.aparchive.com/HowWeWork • Twitter: / ap_archive • Facebook: / aparchives • Instagram: / apnews • • • You can license this story through AP Archive: http://www.aparchive.com/metadata/you...
