"The Northeastern edge of Greece: Zourafa " [With English subtitles]
Episode 3
Sofia Papaioannou and her team embark on a groundbreaking journey to Zourafa, the most northeastern islet in Greece, marking the first time a television show has ventured there. Zourafa is of immense geostrategic importance and remains a point of contention with Turkey.
The visit comes just three days after the latest provocation by a retired Turkish admiral who claimed to have approached the islet and raised the Turkish flag.
Departing from the port of Alexandroupolis, the team will navigate the Thracian Sea, documenting ongoing violations by Turkish fishing boats in the Eastern Aegean, as well as the ongoing harassment of Greek fishermen. Contrary to popular belief, these incidents are not limited to the Imia region, but extend throughout the area.
The episode also sheds light on a covert mission by the Greek Navy in 2012 to reconstruct the Zourafa lighthouse, a critical navigational beacon. In addition, fishermen from Alexandroupolis share their stories and provide insight into the lesser-known realities surrounding Zourafa, the island they consider part of their home and livelihood.
