And these two comments:

"'BirdLife Cyprus will be keeping a very close watch on the poaching situation in the Akrotiri area,' Hellicar vowed.

Nicola Crockford, of the RSPB added: 'As the spring migration begins in earnest, Cypriot authorities and the British Sovereign Base Areas, in partnership, can show their commitment to bird protection by clamping down decisively on those individuals who illegally kill birds."

MEAN ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!! :hmpf::realmad::cry:
