An El Al Boeing 737-800, registration 4X-EKI performing flight LY-383 from Tel Aviv (Israel) to Rome Fiumicino (Italy), was enroute at FL360 about 210nm west of Larnaca (Cyprus) when the crew declared emergency reporting smoke on the flight deck, turned around and diverted to Larnaca for a safe landing on runway 04 about 35 minutes after the decision to divert. The aircraft vacated the runway and stopped clear of the runway for an inspection by emergency services before taxiing to the apron.
