Turkey continued its brazen provocations against Greece, as the Turkish Air Force committed illegal overflights and violations of the Greek national airspace over the Aegean.

Shortly after 15:00 (at 15:07) a pair of Turkish F-16 fighter jets flew over the island of Antropofagoi at an altitude of 21,000 feet, while shortly after (15:08), a second pair of Turkish F-16s flew over the same isles again, at 12,000 feet.
