Report: Turkey Sending 4 Fighter Jets to Occupied Cyprus

According to a report in the Turkish Cypriot newspaper “Yeni Duzen,” Turkey will send 4 fighter jets to the occupied territories tomorrow, which will land at the illegal airport in Tymbou. This move is part of strengthening the pseudo-state's defense and as a “guarantor power,” following the recent attack on the British Bases. Security measures at Tymbou airport have already been increased. There has been no official announcement from the “government” of the occupied territories, while the deployment of the aircraft is attributed to increased tensions in the region.
