    Marking EOKA anniversary=20

    VETERANS of EOKA, the National Organisation of Cypriot Fighters, =
will today celebrate the anniversary of the start of the uprising from =
British colonial rule, with a series of events.

    EOKA (Ethniki Organosis Kyprion Agoniston) was a Greek Cypriot =
organisation that fought for the end of British colonial rule on the =
island, for self-determination and for union with Greece in the mid to =
late 1950s.

    The organisation was headed by George Grivas, a Cyprus-born Colonel =
in the Greek army who distinguished himself during World War II and =
fought in the subsequent Greek civil war. Grivas assumed the =
=E2=80=98nom de guerre=E2=80=99 Digenis in honour of the Byzantine =
legend Digenis Akritas, who repelled invaders from the Byzantine Empire =
during the middle ages.=20

    EOKA was clandestinely sup****ted by the Greek government in the form =
of arms, money and propaganda on radio stations aired from Athens.

    Its guerrilla campaign began on April 1, 1955 when the group =
targeted British military and civilian installations on the island. It =
later also targeted Greek and Turkish Cypriot collaborators and =
informants.=20

    April 1 is now a national holiday. It is celebrated in memorial =
services in churches and gatherings in cities and villages in the free =
parts of Cyprus.=20
