Turkish media, specifically the GZT news agency, has published a video claiming to reveal secret military acquisitions by the Republic of Cyprus. The video focuses on the new 'TAMNAVA' missile launchers acquired by the National Guard from Serbia, alleging that this acquisition was made through a secret collaboration with Greece and Israel, with the aim of establishing a joint army. The video portrays Cyprus as a country dependent on the United Kingdom, Europe, the United States, and Greece, while hinting at a secret network for transporting military equipment. Turkish sources claim that the missile launchers were transported overland to Greece and then by ship to Cyprus in order to avoid attention.
