Does anyone know how these parcels have got to Cyprus? Are there cargo flights and if there are I wonder whether they could bring in mail? It would be nice to get my mail, otherwise what will happen to it should the lockdown here last for a number of weeks or months?
Postal services are still operating in the UK.

We sent a large envelope from UK to Limassol on Wednesday. I'm tracking it and have also asked our customer to let us know when he receives it.

I've had 2 deliveries of post this week, but only letters.

NO parcels.

Do isolate the letters and parcels for 72 hours and wash hands after touching!

Thanks Mike for your post, your warning made me smile! In these days perhaps you
should you isolate everything you bring back to your house? Who knows...

What about outbound letters/parcels? Are items still being sent abroad?

I picked up my post yesterday from the Old Post Office., after reading post above. I think that Postal Service is being restored on Friday, but only to certain European countries, of which the Uk is one.
