No willingness to de-escalate, no retreat: see the course of the Turkish investigation.
Oruc Reis has been sailing in the waters of the Dodecanese for the past few hours, constantly approaching Rhodes.
The Turks, at 09:00 on Saturday morning, were at a distance of 16 miles from the “island of knights”, with Turkish frigates and corvettes constantly close to it.
Each of their movements is monitored by the Greek Fleet, which has the order to follow the Turkish ships in all their actions.
SEE WHERE ORUC REIS IS:
It is obvious that Turkey seems to be preparing for a serious challenge, that, although it was attempted several times from March until today, it was not completed due to the immediate, dynamic and decisive reaction of the Greek Armed Forces.
However, despite the dynamic responses Ankara has received from the Greek Armed Forces, it is a fact that it will not back down and will continue to provoke, not only in the Kastelorizo area, but also in other areas of the eastern Mediterranean.
Three new NAVTEX

Two of them are located in Turkish waters off the coast of the neighboring country and well to the east of Kastelorizo in the Phenicia area while the third is located off the coast of Alexandretta.
