Turkey Denies Reports of Sending Tanks to Greek Border

Relations between Athens and Ankara, already strained, worsened in 2020 due to the migration crisis and disputes over resource extraction rights in the Aegean and Mediterranean seas.

Reports regarding Turkey sending tanks to its border with Greece are untrue, according to Anadolu Agency citing its sources. Earlier, media outlets had reported that Turkey was sending tanks from the southeastern Hatay province to Edirne, which borders Greece.

The Turkish source claims that these reports are inaccurate, stating that the military activities were merely exercises involving the movement of certain military equipment.
