Turkey continues, dangerous games and the war of nerves with Oruc Reis, who earlier today was even closer to Kastelorizo.
The Oruc Reis with the auxiliaries Ataman and Cengiz Han but also the Turkish warships that accompany it, is located for the seventh consecutive day in front of the Greek island, while moving NE and SW of Kastelorizo.
The Turkish research ship reportedly approached the 12 nautical mile limit from Strongyli and 14 nautical miles from Megisti. It is recalled that the northern part of the illegal navtex reaches up to 6.5 nautical miles.
The investigation movement further north has put the Armed Forces and especially the Navy on full alert, which has significantly strengthened their presence in the area with strong Fleet units closely monitoring Turkish movements and giving an image direct from Athens in the operations center.
The position of Oruc Reis in the afternoon and its heading according to marinetraffic:
The ship’s course in an area of the Greek continental shelf is closely monitored by the Ministry of Defense.
According to the Turkish Navtex last Sunday, October 11, the Turkish research ship could reach a distance of 10.5 miles from Kastelorizo, challenging the Greek sovereign rights as well as the right of our country to extend its territorial waters to 12 nautical miles.
