Tensions rising: Turks breach border, Greeks fire shots

The incident occurred last night, according to sources at the Greek Coast Guard headquarters, Katimerini reported.

Three Coast Guard vessels immediately set out to the scene to warn the Turkish fishing boats with repeated visual and audio signals to leave Greek territorial waters, but the boats ignored them.

One of the Turkish vessels performed a dangerous maneuver, risking a collision with one of the Greek patrol boats. The patrol crew then fired warning shots in accordance with regulations, after which the Turkish boats withdrew.

However, according to Katimerini, Turkish media reported a different version of events, stating that the fishing boat had departed from the port of Didim in the Aydın region toward the Aegean Sea, and was then fired upon by the Greek Coast Guard.

Turkish media reported that the vessel was damaged in the incident, and the fishermen notified the Turkish Coast Guard, which confirmed damage to the boat.

The A Haber website reported that, according to the captain of the Turkish boat, the incident occurred in Turkish territorial waters, and that the Greek side fired six shots at the vessel, damaging the radar section.
