A video was posted online, showing illegal capture and killing of thousands of birds in Cyprus. This video was filmed by a member of the British animal rights charity, the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds(RSPB). The NGO estimated that last summer more than 1.7 millions of bird was illegally trapped. Natalie Stylianou is a member of BirdLife Cyprus, said it’s quite difficult to take photos and videos of these illegal activities because some hunters re aggressive. Birds are mostly captured in Dhekelia sovereign.

Siobhan Prescott said a worker was attempting to pick up one-year-old Harper. Siobhan woke up to find the woman, dressed in a maid’s outfit, standing over the bed at a five star hotel in Cyprus. Siobhan said: “I was napping when a maid sneaked into the room and tried to snatch my baby. The only reason I woke up was because Harper screamed out, otherwise she could have been the next Maddie McCann.” Maddie McCann was another girl who got kidnapped at a hotel and went missing. She was never seen again. Siobhan said: “I am lucky to have woken up, but if I hadn’t God knows what would have happened.”
