Turkish security forces on Thursday refuted the claims over the harassment of a helicopter carrying Greek army general.
In some foreign media outlets, it is claimed that Turkish fighter jets harassed a helicopter carrying Greek Land Forces Commander during its travel to Greece’s Meis Island.
Dismissing the claims, Turkish security sources said there was no approaching that posed a danger to the Greek helicopter.
The aircrafts belonging to the Turkish Air Forces were on regular duty in the Aegean region, said the security sources.
