The Greek reaction was immediate to Ankara’s decision to add more water to the climbing mill, renewing the illegal Navtex for Oruts Rey until 4 November and shifting its area of activity further to the southwest.
The Heraklion station of the naval hydrographic service issued a cancellation directive (anti-Navtex), reminding the Turkish side that it has no jurisdiction in the specific area where the responsibility for transmitting naval announcements belongs to the Greek station.
Furthermore, with the anti-Navtex, Ankara returns to order, as the activity it approves is mentioned as unauthorized and illegal as it falls on the Greek continental shelf.
The anti-Navtex issued by Greece in detail:
