Greece fires warning shots at Turkish helicopter

Erstwhile NATO allies locked in yet another round of tense exchanges, sparked this time by Turkey’s detention of two Greek soldiers who according to Athens strayed into Turkish territory by mistake.
Greek military source: “The order to fire the warning shots to force the helicopter to move off came in the context of stepped up surveillance and reaction measures adopted given the increase in tensions with Turkey.”
