EDIRNE, Turkey (AA) - A court in northwestern Turkey on Wednesday ordered the continued detention of two Greek soldiers who “inadvertently” strayed across the countries’ border last month.

The Edirne 2nd Criminal Court of Peace ruled against a petition by the soldiers’ lawyers to release them from remand.

The Greek soldiers were remanded into custody on March 2 for entering a prohibited military zone in Edirne, which borders Greece.
