Nearly all residents fled the village of Akrotiri in Cyprus after drones targeted the nearby British Royal Air Force base, The Guardian reported, citing Akrotiri Deputy Mayor Giorgos Konstantinos.
"Everyone has left with the exception of about 20 people who refused to leave," the mayor said, adding, "It's been a mass evacuation given the circumstances and fear."
According to the news agency, local police also increased patrols around the base and authorities moved non-essential personnel to other areas of the sovereign base territories after the latest attack.
