With all means available Ankara escalates tensions with Greece.
In the videos available to the Greek authorities it is evident that a large number of tear gas grenades were fired from the Turkish side against the Greek soldiers and security forces.
Other videos also show Turkish policemen in a well-organized and well-equipped way firing chemicals on the Greek side while small fires can be seen in Kastanies.
However, the Turkish Coast Guard took part in the provocation, by harassing a Hellenic Coast Guard vessel in Lesvos with an apparent risk of collision.
