[01] No infringements and violations in the Aegean by Turkish warplanes
in two days
Armed Forces General Staff sources said on Friday that there were no
illegal activities by the Turkish Air Force over the Aegean on Thursday
and Friday, showing conduct which abides by the terms of good
neighbourliness.
However, the stance of the Turkish Air Force does not impress the Greek
Air Force which is observing developments and maintaining a high level
of alert for the confrontation of any illegal activity in the Aegean,
given the until now record of conduct by the neighbouring country.
According to the Armed Forces General Staff sources, on Wednesday 24
Turkish warplanes made eight infringements of the air traffic
regulations of the Athens Flight Information Region (FIR) which
developed in four violations of the national airspace in the northern
and central Aegean. All the Turkish aircraft were recognised and
intercepted by corresponding Greek fighter planes.
