Global multi-asset broker Exness allocated social funds to introduce three specialized fire detection drones (unmanned aerial systems) to address the heavy problem of forest fires in Cyprus.

Based on a press conference on November 10, the company explained that two drones are ready to operate, and the last one will start in early 2024. This assistance is the second collaborative project with the Ministry of Forestry following financial support of €300,000 to strengthen firefighting capacity.
Developed directly by the Unmanned Systems Research Laboratory at the Cyprus Institute, drone technology will help protect the environment in the Cyprus region to meet the needs of the Forest Service. The high-level transparency broker also sponsored three professional pilots to operate the drones for two years.
Exness Head of Community Martin Thorvaldsson commented, "This drone donation provides technical resources to the Forest Service to tackle problems in Cyprus. Detecting forest fires and sending alerts to their location with this new technology will become the new standard. With our first donation last year, we reduced response times and improved firefighting operations.
In addition, there is a euro roadmap for donating €300,000 to fight forest fires on the island, especially after the fire tragedy in Arakapas in 2021. The instant withdrawal platform allocated three fire trucks and carried out tree-planting actions in the affected areas. These contributions to the Ministry of Forestry exceed €600,000, more than double the initial agreement.
