Five unaccompanied minors who have been put up at a hotel in Paphos were slightly injured during a row broke out between two groups on Friday afternoon.
Police managed to stop the situation from escalating after intervening.
The incident happened in front of the hotel, CNA reported when the two groups of unaccompanied minors got into a physical altercation during a game of football.
Anti-riot police went to the scene and managed to quell the clash. Five of the teens were injured, two of whom were taken to Paphos hospital A&E, treated and discharged.
Police remained at the scene until the early hours of Saturday.
The minors were taken to Paphos earlier this year after an uproar over the conditions they were living in at the Pournara facility.
