Η Τουρκία αποδεικνύει για άλλη μία φορά την προκλητικότητά της, επιχειρώντας να εργαλοιοποιήσει το τραγικό ναυάγιο στη Χίο, το οποίο είχε ως αποτέλεσμα 15 νεκρούς και 24 τραυματίες.
Λίγες μέρες πριν την επικείμενη επίσκεψη του Κυριάκου Μητσοτάκη στην Άγκυρα, η τουρκική πλευρά εξέδωσε ΝΟΤΑΜ, επιδιώκοντας να εμφανιστεί ως η αρμόδια αρχή για τον συντονισμό της έρευνας και διάσωσης ανοικτά της Χίου.
Μετά το επεισόδιο σύγκρουσης περιπολικού σκάφους του Λιμενικού Σώματος με ταχύπλοο που χρησιμοποιούσαν διακινητές και επέβαιναν μετανάστες, οι ελληνικές Αρχές εξέδωσαν σχετική ΝΟΤΑΜ, ενεργοποιώντας διαδικασίες έρευνας και διάσωσης, σύμφωνα με όσα προβλέπει το διεθνές δίκαιο. Η περιοχή όπου αναπτύχθηκε η επιχείρηση βρίσκεται εντός του FIR Αθηνών και περιλαμβάνεται στη ζώνη ευθύνης των ελληνικών Αρχών.

Η τουρκική ΝΟΤΑΜ
A0422/26 NAVIGATIONAL WARNING TO ALL CONCERNED:
THIS NOTAM IS ISSUED TO CLARIFY THE 'A0266/26' LGGG NOTAM ISSUED BY GREEK CAA.
AS REGARDS THE GREEK NOTAM 'A0266/26' LGGG, TURKIYE DOES NOT ACCEPT THE DEFINITION OF THE SEARCH AND RESCUE (SAR) AREA WITH REFERENCE TO ATHENS FIR. THE AREA REFERRED TO IN THE SAID GREEK NOTAM VIOLATES PART OF TURKISH TERRITORIAL WATERS AND PARTLY FALLS WITHIN TURKIYE'S MARITIME SEARCH AND RESCUE REGION (SRR) AS DECLARED TO THE IMO AND INCLUDED IN THE IMO'S GLOBAL SAR PLAN. THEREFORE, ALL SAR EFFORTS/ACTIVITIES WITHIN THE TURKISH SRR MUST BE COORDINATED WITH THE RELEVANT TURKISH AUTHORITIES. 04 FEB 04:25 2026 UNTIL 06 FEB 19:40 2026. CREATED: 04 FEB 04:35 2026
Η δεύτερη Ελληνική ΝΟΤΑΜ
A0267/26 REF (A) GREEK NOTAM A0266/26 (031945 EUECYIYN FEB 2026).
REF (B) TURKISH NOTAM A0422/26 (040435 EUECYIYN FEB 2026).
NAVIGATIONAL WARNING TO ALL CONCERNED:
WITH REFERENCE TO THE REF (B) TURKISH NOTAM A0422/26 (040435 EUECYIYN FEB 2026) THE FOLLOWING SHOULD BE UNDERLINED:
1.- THE REF (B) TURKISH NOTAM A0422/26 (040435 EUECYIYN FEB 2026) IS NULL AND VOID SINCE IT REFERS TO SEARCH AND RESCUE ACTIVITIES WITHIN ATHINAI FIR WHERE THE ONLY COMPETENT AUTHORITY TO PROMULGATE NOTAMS, ACCORDING TO ICAO PROVISIONS, IS THE HELLENIC CIVIL AVIATION AUTHORITY THROUGH ITS APPROPRIATE AIS UNIT.
2.- IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THE SEARCH AND RESCUE REGION UNDER GREEK RESPONSIBILITY COINCIDES WITH THE ATHINAI FIR, AS DECIDED DURING THE
ISTANBUL (1950), PARIS (1952) AND GENEVA (1958) REGIONAL AIR NAVIGATION MEETINGS ACCEPTED BY THE PARTICIPANT STATES INCLUDING TURKEY AND APPROVED BY UNANIMOUS ICAO COUNCIL DECISIONS.
THIS IS ALSO REGISTERED AND HAS BEEN CIRCULATED WITHIN IMO (SAR.8/CIRC.1/CORR.3, ANNEX 2) AND IS CONSISTENT WITH IMO AND ICAO RECOMMENDATIONS ON THE ALIGNMENT OF SEARCH AND RESCUE BOUNDARIES WITH THE CORRESPONDING FIR.
FURTHERMORE THE JRCC PIRAEUS IS THE ONLY COMPETENT AUTHORITY THAT COORDINATES EFFECTIVELY AND EFFICIENTLY ALL SAR OPERATIONS WITHIN THE ENTIRE GREEK SAR REGION.
END PART 1 OF 2. 04 FEB 07:52 2026 UNTIL 06 FEB 19:40 2026. CREATED: 04 FEB 08:02 2026
3.- FINALLY, THE AREA AS DESCRIBED IN REF (A) GREEK NOTAM A0266/26 (031945 EUECYIYN FEB 2026), LIES WITHIN GREEK TERRITORY, GREEK TERRITORIAL WATERS AND GREEK NATIONAL AIRSPACE, WHERE GREECE EXERCISES SOVEREIGNTY ACCORDING TO INTERNATIONAL LAW. AS IN THE PAST, TURKISH AUTHORITIES' MISINTERPRETATION AND DISTORTION OF THE LETTER AND SPIRIT OF INTERNATIONAL DOCUMENTS, CONCERNING SEARCH AND RESCUE RESPONSIBILITIES, ARE REJECTED BY GREECE, AS THEY MAY LEAD TO SERIOUS INSTITUTIONAL AND PRACTICAL COMPLICATIONS IN THE CONDUCT OF SEARCH AND RESCUE OPERATIONS.
MOREOVER IT IS REITERATED THAT GREECE EFFECTIVELY PROVIDES SEARCH AND RESCUE SERVICES WITHIN THE SEARCH AND RESCUE REGION UNDER ITS
RESPONSIBILITY, SINCE ITS CREATION.
FOR ALL THESE REASONS, THE REF (B) TURKISH NOTAM A0422/26 (040435 EUECYIYN FEB 2026) IS NULL AND VOID AND IS HEREBY REJECTED.
THE REF (A) GREEK NOTAM A0266/26 (031945 EUECYIYN FEB 2026) IS THE ONLY VALID AND EFFECTIVE WITHIN ATHINAI FIR AND NO FURTHER EXPLANATION WILL BE GIVEN.
END PART 2 OF 2. 04 FEB 07:52 2026 UNTIL 06 FEB 19:40 2026. CREATED: 04 FEB 08:02 2026
