[Israel Foreign Ministry @IsraelMFA]

Turkey has the audacity to criticize Israel. But what are the facts on the ground?

Thousands of Turkish soldiers. Dozens of military bases and outposts across Syria, Iraq and Cyprus.

While Erdogan’s military aggression knows no borders, and Turkey occupies 36% of Cyprus, 5% of Syria and 2,000 km² of Iraq.

Israel temporarily controls merely 0.1% of Syria - a buffer zone to protect its citizens from proven security threats.

[Gideon Sa'ar | גדעון סער @gidonsaar]

Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan accuses Israel of destabilizing Syria for taking the minimum measures necessary to protect Israeli citizens from attacks. These are the same Turkish leaders who have spent decades violating the sovereignty of Syria while cynically lecturing others on international law.

Turkey occupies five percent of Syria, and intends to establish military bases inside Syria to undermine Israel’s security.

In comparison, Israel holds a buffer zone that comprises just one-tenth of one percent of Syrian territory, in order to protect itself from the terrorist groups seeking to attack Israel from southern Syria, after Syrian militants violated the 1974 Israel-Syria Separation of Forces Agreement and entered the buffer zone in December 2024.

Under President Erdoğan, Turkey has carried out extensive military campaigns against Kurdish forces across Syria and Iraq, repeatedly threatened neighboring states, maintained its occupation of 36 percent of Cyprus for more than half a century, and drawn widespread international criticism for its human rights record.

What Minister Fidan wants is for Israel to stop protecting itself from threats to its security. This will not happen.
Israel will continue to take all measures necessary to defend its citizens against any threat.

🇬🇷 Athens responds to Turkey’s provocations and rejects the Turkish illegal claims regarding the outer limits of its maritime zones in the Aegean and the Eastern Mediterranean in a letter to the United Nations.

“The Turkish claims ignore completely the sovereign rights of Greece and the entitlements of its islands to maritime zones both in the Aegean and the Eastern Mediterranean.

🔵More specifically, all islands, regardless of their size, enjoy:
First, territorial sea entitlements to 12 nautical miles; and, second, with the exception of "rocks which cannot sustain human habitation or economic life of their own", exclusive economic zone (EEZ) and continental shelf entitlements in the same way as any other land territory.
This rule is clearly stipulated in article 121 of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, which reflects customary international law and is, therefore, binding on non-States Parties to the Convention.

🔵Turkey’s assertions that the Greek islands do not generate maritime zones beyond the current 6-nautical mile territorial sea, are in flagrant violation of the above-mentioned principle and infringe on the indivisibility of the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Greece.

🔵In this respect, it should be recalled that Turkey has since 1995 explicitly declared a threat of war (casus belli) against Greece, in the event that Greece extends its territorial sea beyond the current limit of 6 nautical miles.

🔵Nevertheless, Greece retains, and hereby reserves, the right, in accordance with international law, to extend the territorial sea of all of its islands to 12 nautical miles.”

:A Grecian Odyssey, Seen from 250 Miles Above From the serene vantage point of orbit, the cradle of Western civilization unfolds like a living myth carved into the Earth itself.Below lies the rugged Greek mainland, stretching southward into the sun-drenched Peloponnese, where ancient heroes once walked. Further still, the legendary island of Crete anchors the scene, birthplace of gods and kings. The Aegean Sea glimmers with countless islands scattered like jewels across sapphire waters — a labyrinth of myth and memory.The coastlines are impossibly intricate, fringed and lacy, as if the gods themselves traced delicate fingers along the shore. From 250 miles up, the geography that shaped democracy, philosophy, and epic poetry reveals its breathtaking secrets in a single glance.These are the same waters that carried Odysseus home, that whispered secrets to Socrates, and that still call to sailors and dreamers across the ages.Simply breathtaking. Timeless.
