Warrants issued for Davies killers in Cyprus violence
United Press International reports Cyprus authorities issued warrants for three Greek Cypriots linked to the fatal shooting of U.S. Ambassador Rodger B Davies in Nicosia.

Meanwhile Turkish forces report mass graves in Atllar, and Athens purges top military leaders amid ongoing regional turmoil.
