Turkish fighter jets fly over Greeks isles
- Written by E.Tsiliopoulos
Two Turkish F-16s entered the Athens FIR without submitting a flight plan at 12:03.
The two fighter jets flew over the isles of Anthropofagoi and Makroniisi – between Ikaria and Agathonissi – at an altitude of 22,400 feet, as the Hellenic National Defence General Staff reported.
A minute later 2 Turkish F-4s which had entered the Athens FIR without submitting a flight plan also flew over the same islets at 10,000 feet.
All the invading Turkish aircraft were identified and intercepted by Greek fighters in accordance with international rules of engagement.
