Mock dogfight breaks out amid Turkish violations of Greek airspace

Turkish military aircraft, including F-16s and a spy plane, violated Greek airspace 17 times over the Aegean Sea on Thursday, according to Greek officials. In one instance, a Greek fighter jet engaged in a simulated dogfight with a Turkish pilot. This marks the first such encounter since July 10 and the eighth of the year. The incidents occurred shortly after Greece announced plans to connect its power grid with Cyprus via an undersea cable, a move opposed by Turkey. Other violations included a Turkish ATR-72 spy plane and unmanned drones.
