Turkey chooses to further escalate its rhetoric hours after a Turkish Coast Guard ship rammed a Hellenic Coast Guard vessel at the area of Imia.
Monday saw a night of tension at Imia as a Turkish cutter collided with a Hellenic Coast Guard vessel.
Presenting an operation that culminated in the seizure of the Tanzania-flagged freighter "Andromeda" and its cargo of explosives, Greek coast guard officers on Wednesday said the ship had been a "moving bomb that could have had unforeseeable repercussions on people and the marine environment."
