Charalambos Mouskos graduated from Panagia Primary School and Paphos Greek High School. He was a cousin of Archbishop Makarios III. After special training in Greece, he was appointed director of the archdiocese’s printing press, where the first pamphlets and forms of the struggle were printed. At the same time, he acted as an executive of the PEON and OHEN organizations which were encouraged by the Archbishop. With the beginning of the armed action of EOKA, Mouskos was one of the first five group leaders of the Nicosia saboteur groups and was in direct contact with the leader Digenis.

His group, led by him, took an active part on the night of April 1, 1955 in an attack on the Chief Secretariat. He was later betrayed, but escaped capture and rebelled in the mountains. He was the first to flee to the guerilla in Kykkos, where others arrived later, to form the first guerilla group with the name “Uranos” and led by Markos Drakos.

On December 15, 1955 Charalambos Mouskos together with his fellow heroes Markos Drakos, Andreas Zakos, Charilaos Michael and four others set up an ambush against the British at the site of Mersinaki near the ancient Solos. In the battle that followed Charalambos Mouskos fell and an English soldier was killed. He is the first EOKA fighter who fell in battle. Next to him, Andreas Zakos and Charilaos Michael were arrested with serious injuries, while Markos Drakos escaped with a head injury.
