Fishermen discovered an object believed to be an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) in the sea off Karaburun in Istanbul’s Arnavutkoy district on Thursday, authorities said.
According to Türkiye Today's initial analysis, the discovered object is a Russian-made Geran-2, which is based on Iran's Shahed-136 model kamikaze unmanned aerial vehicle.
Turkish Coast Guard Command teams were dispatched to the area after the fishermen reported the find. An examination of the object is ongoing.
