Activities In Incirlik Base Continue |
2003-02-14 |
Under permission of the parliament, necessary renovation, development and construction works have been continuing at military bases and ports. Sources told the A.A correspondent on Thursday that all flights had been called off at Incirlik Air Base near Yuregir town of southern province of Adana since Wednesday morning. Working machines have started operating in the base. Closed the base for new construction, most likely extra ramps, aircraft parking pads, warehouses, etc. Last week, the parliament allowed deployment of U.S. technical and military personnel in Turkey for three months for renovation, development and construction of bases and ports. They are supposed to vote next week on allowing US troops to use bases in Turkey to attack Iraq. Hope they remember how the European NATO members treated their request for support. |
