Larnaca police are investigating a case of attempted murder after an early morning explosion on Tuesday in a van being driven in Oroklini.
A 30-year-old man from Romanian was injured but not seriously, according to state radio.
Specifically, a device exploded around 5:30am in a van while it was being driven by the young man.

Moreover, police are inspecting CCTV footage and questioning locals who may have been in the area at that time.
