A major housing project planned in Engomi, backed by the Kykkos monastery, on Monday sparked strong opposition from the Green Party.
The movement argues that the development threatens one of the last traditional olive groves in the capital and calls for its cancellation on environmental and urban planning grounds.
Meanwhile, the Holy Synod has approved the request from Kykkos monastery to develop land near the Metochi of Agios Prokopios.
