Ankara continued to rev up provocations in the eastern Aegean on Wednesday, oblivious to increased international attention over its saber-rattlings and belligerence, with two separate overflights of Greek territory by two pairs of Turkish F-16 fighter planes.

The first incident was reported at 14.33 local time (12.33 GMT), with a pair of Turkish warplanes passing over the small populated isle of Agathonissi at 10,000 feet.

A minute later, a second pair of intruders passed over the uninhabited Anthropofagi rock islet at 17,000 feet.
