On July 20, Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis and President Tayyip Erdogan will be in Cyprus for separate events, commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Turkish invasion. Their presence, just 11 kilometers apart, highlights ongoing tensions despite attempts at rapprochement between Greece and Türkiye.

Türkiye announced that it has renamed the Incirlik Tanker Base as "10th Main Jet Base Command," in line with the needs of the Turkish Armed Forces (TSK), a move that will allow the deployment of F-16 jetfighters on the facility, according to a statement by the Defense Ministry.

Türkiye's fifth-generation indigenous combat aircraft, KAAN, on Feb. 21 successfully conducted its first flight, marking an important milestone as one of the country's premiere defense industry projects.

Turkish first astronaut Alper Gezeravcı has been appointed to the Board of Directors of the Turkish Space Agency (TUA), a national institution committed to supporting the development of space and aviation science and technologies in the country.

Türkiye's first astronaut, Alper Gezeravcı, on Feb. 9 returned Earth after successfully concluding his 18-day mission on the International Space Station.

The Space X Dragon capsule, carrying Gezeravcı and three other accompanying astronauts, carried out a splashdown off Daytona, Florida.

Set to make history, the first Turkish astronaut Alper Gezeravcı, whose launch has been delayed due to a technical problem, will undertake 13 groundbreaking experiments in space.

The rocket that will carry the Axiom Mission 3 (Ax-3) crew, including Türkiye's first astronaut Alper Gezeravcı, to the International Space Station (ISS) will launch tonight at 12:49 a.m.

The evolving dynamics of the intricate and often problematic US-Turkey relationship remain a constant concern for Greek diplomacy, even though public discourse about it can be challenging.

Industry and Technology Minister Mehmet Fatih Kacır has declared that the country's inaugural astronaut, Alper Gezeravcı, is set to embark his mission to the International Space Station (ISS) on Jan. 9, 2024.

The stalemate in Washington on the issue of the approval for the modernization and sale of the F-16s is increasingly concerning Ankara, prompting skepticism about the future of US-Turkish relations.

The American commitment to reinforce Greece with fifth-generation fighter jets, along with the sale of a number of more sophisticated F-16s, is indicative, at least for now, of Washington's wish to maintain a certain balance of air power in the Aegean.
