Greece's militarisation of the non-militarized islands in the eastern Aegean Sea alarms Türkiye after months of having voiced concerns about the Greek moves that raise the stakes by operating against international law and numerous treaties. Captured by the Turkish military UAVs on a surveillance mission, new images record the transport of dozens of military vehicles donated by the US to Greece deployed on the islands of Lesvos and Samos near Türkiye's western coast. President Recept Tayyip Erdogan slammed the move, saying Türkiye will utilize all means to protect its border and rights.
