Turkish jets fly over Greek islets
Two pairs of Turkish F-4 and F-16 fighter jets flew over the Anthropofagi and Makronisi chain of islets in the eastern Aegean, the Hellenic National Defense General Staff (GEETHA) said on Wednesday.
The two F-4 jets entered Athens’ Flight Information Region (FIR) without submitting a flight plan at 10.34 a.m. and flew at 10,000 feet.
Meanwhile, two Turkish F-16s entered the Athens FIR and flew over the same islets at 16,000 feet.
The Turkish aircraft were intercepted by Greek jets in line with international rules of engagement.
