Cyprus Casinos Closes All Casinos as New Virus Cases Surge December 17, 2020, 10:51 am ·
Cyprus Casinos, the Republic of Cyprus-based subsidiary of gaming and hospitality giant Melco Resorts & Entertainment, has suspended operations at all of its casinos across the island nation as Covid-19 cases have spiked at an alarming rate over the past month.
In a message on its website, the casino operator informed its customers that it has temporarily suspended its operations
“according to the government directive.” Cyprus Casinos has not announced a reopening date for its gambling venues.
The company was formed after its parent organization, Melco, won in 2016 the right to build a multi-million integrated casino resort in the Cypriot city of Limassol and open and operate four satellite casinos in four other cities around the tiny Mediterranean island nation.
