Banks in Cyprus are to open for the first time in more than a week on Thursday, operating for six hours from noon (10:00 GMT), but restrictions will be in place on financial transactions to prevent people from draining their accounts.

The move comes as hundred demonstrators marched from the European Union's offices in the capital to Parliament on Wednesday night to protest the bailout plan.

Al Jazeera's Simon McGregor Wood reports from Nicosia.
