TOTAL: 11,417 
 
--There were a total of 9,664 U.S.-assisted departures from 
Cyprus on U.S. charter flights as of 800L July 26.  Post 
expects the arrival of one more ship July 26, and two more 
per day July 27 and July 28.  Likewise, two charter 
departures per day are scheduled for July 26 and 27. 
 
--Approximately 200 people (undocumented humanitarian cases 
and their relatives) spent the night at the Fairgrounds; by 
800L, undocumented passengers from the Orient Queen brought 
this number to around 400. 
 
--Fairgrounds now has 24-hour CONS staffing coverage. 
 
MANAGEMENT 
 
¶3. (U)  MGT continues to focus on staffing issues and 
transitioning out of the Fairgrounds.  New arrivals will be 
booked into hotels as soon as possible. 
 
SECURITY 
 
¶4. (C)  Regional Security Office (RSO) has expanded security 
perimeter around the Fairgrounds, after five agitators, 
posing as Cypriot volunteers but believed to be Libyan 
nationals, nearly instigated a breakdown of order.  RSO and 
our consul removed the agitators and were able to calm the 
crowd down. 
 
¶5. (C)  The increasing number of Class 1 hits indicates that 
individuals convicted of serious crimes, including rape, are 
among those sheltered at the Fairgrounds.  We are working to 
shelter the most vulnerable (e.g., women with young children, 
some of whom have been at the Fairgrounds for five days) in 
hotels, while removing those who may pose a threat to others 
in separate hotels.  Under our plan, once a case is 
adjudicated, individuals will leave hotels, with those 
favorably adjudicated traveling to the United States.  CONS 
and MGT are coordinating closely on this plan.
