A pair of Turkish F-16 fighter jets conducted unauthorized flights over the eastern Aegean islands of Agathonisi and Framakonisi on Tuesday morning, a day after a visit to the area by Greek President Katerina Sakellaropoulou.

The jets were intercepted by Greek aircraft in line with international rules of engagement, defense sources said.

During a visit to Agathonisi and Leipsoi on Monday, Sakellaropoulou said that Greece will not accept challenges to its national territory.
