According to the Turkish Government Gazette and as reported by the neighboring media, Turkey will create a new air base in the Dalaman area, in the Mugla province, across from Rhodes and Kos.

Finally, it is emphasized that the presence of the Turkish F-16s opposite the Greek islands will act as a deterrent and will offer new possibilities in the execution of aeronautical and not only operations and missions in the wider region, since they will have the Dodecanese as their main area of responsibility.
