Turkey is preparing to send F-16s to Cyprus

Numerous reports in Turkish, Cypriot and Greek media converge on the fact that it is also preparing to send fighters to. According to the reports in the Turkish media and in particular in the newspaper Yeniduzen, preparations have begun at the illegal Ercan airport in the occupied territories for the reception of the Turkish fighters, which will arrive tomorrow (03/08).

According to what has become known, it is most likely that it is four F-16s and Turkey presents this move as a decision that it, like the rest of the European countries, takes to protect the island. In fact, some publications also refer to Turkey’s status as a guarantor of the island’s power, presenting the move essentially as a contractual obligation of the country.
