Turkey has announced it will accelerate the construction of a 60,000‑ton aircraft carrier as tensions with Israel rise.

The Ankara‑based shipbuilder said the vessel, which will be the largest warship in the Turkish Navy, will be completed faster than originally planned, though it did not give a new launch date.

The decision comes as Ankara seeks to bolster its naval capabilities amid growing regional friction with Israel, according to the source.
