Turkey Summons Ukrainian Ambassador, Russian Envoy Over Black Sea Attacks

Turkey has summoned the Ukrainian ambassador and the Russian chargé d’affaires to express concerns over recent attacks in the Black Sea. The move follows incidents involving ships en route to or from Russia being targeted near Turkish waters.

According to the International Desk of Webangah News Agency, Turkey has summoned the Ukrainian ambassador and the Russian chargé d’affaires to voice its apprehension regarding attacks occurring in the Black Sea.

Reuters reported that the summons was prompted by recent incidents, including one where a vessel en route from Russia to Georgia was struck approximately 80 miles off the Turkish coast. Turkish maritime authorities had previously disclosed that the ship, carrying sunflower oil, sustained damage in the assault.

In a separate incident on November 28, two oil tankers named Kairos and Virat, flying Gambian flags, were reportedly attacked by Ukraine near the Turkish coast. These tankers were navigating towards Russia when the incident occurred.
