    The video, taken on Friday night, was issued together with the following statement: “Video depicting a Turkish armored border surveillance vehicle which tries to pull down part of the border fence with a rope. This incident occurred last night. This is a HIZAR/ATES vehicle, which is equipped with instruments that allow it to monitor the border (day and night). Turkey obtained these vehicles from May to August 2019, with 75 percent of the program financed by European funds. It has a powerful engine and climbing capabilities.”

    Greece quickly repaired the damaged section to stop migrants amassed at the border who constantly try to break through the fence, from entering the EU. This is hard evidence of Turkey aiding the migrants to enter the EU.
