From the Cyprus Mail.

An unidentified object that may have been a missile crashed north of the Cypriot capital, Nicosia, early on Monday, but no one was hurt on the ground, Turkish Cypriot officials said.

Mustafa Akinci, the Turkish Cypriot leader, linked the object to military operations in the Middle East.

Officials were studying debris at the crash site in the Tashkent area, said Kudret Ozersay, foreign minister of ‘Northern Cyprus’, a breakaway state recognised only by Turkey.

“According to information I received from our military sources, the cause of the accident that occurred tonight was not … a helicopter or one of our similar vehicles,” Ozersay wrote on Twitter. “Our soldiers, police and firefighters are carrying out inspections and responding at the site.”

From "IS" in Syria perhaps?
Was it aimed at Greek side but fell short perhaps?
Until the true facts come out speculation will, quite rightly, be rife.
If it proves to be a one-off it is unlikely to affect tourism. However if we ger more and more of these it will, and we will all be leaving I suspect!
