| #4 It's being reported on Turkishpress.com: ISKENDERUN - Under permission of the parliament, necessary renovation, development and construction works have been continuing at Iskenderun Port in southern province of Hatay. A Norwegian-flagged vessel carrying armored vehicles and ammunition, docked into the port on Monday. The vessel ''Antares'' will unload its cargo after the necessary proceedings are completed. Last week, a number of armored vehicles and ammunition were brought by a vessel ''Tellus'' from the United States to Iskenderun Port. These vehicles and ammunition were stored in depots in the port. Most likely equipment coming from Germany, that's where the Tellus came from. |
