Greece\u2019s Hellenic Navy Hydrographic Service has printed a numbered firing-exercise warning that opens at 0600Z on 8 November off the Fournoi Islands in the Samos Sea, not a reprint of Saturday morning\u2019s dedicated NAVWARN 1342\/26 Drapano FORACS box and not a second South Aegean survey. The working primary retrieved this run is official NAVWARN 1343\/2026, posted on the Hydrographic Service\u2019s English navwarn board on 6 November 2026 at https:\/\/hnhs.gr\/en\/1343-2026-samos-sea-fournoi-islands-firing-exercises\/<\/code>: SAMOS SEA. FOURNOI ISLANDS. FIRING EXERCISES. FROM 080600Z TO 081500Z NOV 26 IN AREA BOUNDED BY: 37 32 15N \u2013 026 30 03E, 37 32 09N \u2013 026 30 12E, 37 31 19N \u2013 026 29 52E, 37 31 47N \u2013 026 29 15E, 37 32 15N \u2013 026 30 03E. AVOID CROSSING ABOVE AREA. That is Saturday night\u2019s working Hellenic coastal instrument. It is a four-corner Samos Sea box with a one-day 0600Z\u20131500Z window, not a rewrite of dedicated 1342\/26, not a rewrite of dedicated 1336\/26 NG SURVEYOR, and not a Hormuz Attack PDF.<\/p>\n

The warning is a Hellenic coastal NAVWARN. It is not NAVAREA III 0169\/26. It is not NAVAREA IX 432\/26. It is not UKMTO 198-26. Friday afternoon\u2019s dedicated IMO board remains 129 confirmed incidents as at 6 November, with 25 seafarer fatalities. Masters who brief Saturday night as a Samos or Ikaria port closure, as a five-day Drapano FORACS box reprinted as a Fournoi firing, as a 1336\/26 survey reprinted as a four-corner box, or as a 9 November Drapano window pulled forward onto 8 November will have over-read a timed firing prohibition. 1343\/26 tells the bridge which islands, which four points, which one day and which 0600Z\u20131500Z window to plot. It does not print a keep-clear radius outside the polygon, a VHF working channel, a hull, an IMO number, a RAM line, a weapon class, or a cancel DTG on the Hydrographic Service body. Hold the official wording, including \u201cfiring exercises\u201d and \u201cavoid crossing above area.\u201d<\/p>\n

What 1343\/26 actually printed<\/h2>\n

The hydrographic text is short and is the working primary. SAMOS SEA. FOURNOI ISLANDS. FIRING EXERCISES. From 080600Z to 081500Z November 26 in the area bounded by the four points listed above, with the first corner repeated to close the polygon. Avoid crossing above area. Stay with that wording. The Hydrographic Service printed neither a hull name, an IMO number, an MMSI, a flag, a call sign, a wreck buoy, a least depth, a fishing or anchoring prohibition outside the box, a restricted-in-ability-to-manoeuvre line, a VHF channel, a NOTAM number, a weapon class, nor a \u201cCANCEL THIS MSG\u201d DTG on the English navwarn body. Do not invent a five-cable or one-nautical-mile halo around the polygon. 1343\/26 does not print one. Do not invent a 13 November end date. That end belongs to dedicated 1342\/26, the Drapano FORACS box, not to this Fournoi firing. Do not invent a 131700 UTC 13 November kill time. That cancel belongs to wrap Irakleio 1407\/26\u2019s Drapano reprint of 1342\/26, not to this firing window.<\/p>\n

The geometry is the first briefing fact. The four-point box sits off the Fournoi Islands in the Samos Sea, between Ikaria to the west and Samos to the northeast. North-east corner 37 32 15N 026 30 03E. East corner 37 32 09N 026 30 12E. South corner 37 31 19N 026 29 52E. West corner 37 31 47N 026 29 15E. That is on the order of 0.6 nautical miles north\u2013south by 0.9 nautical miles east\u2013west, not a circular exclusion, not a TSS amendment, and not Saturday morning\u2019s dedicated ~10-by-8-nautical-mile Drapano box. The Ikaria\u2013Samos inshore lane, the Fournoi approaches and the east-Aegean coastal all see a corner. Do not brief a Samos shutdown from a sub-nautical-mile box. Do not brief a Piraeus rewrite. Plot the four points. Stay out of the polygon from 0600Z to 1500Z on 8 November. Do not assume night work is prohibited because hours were printed; the prohibition is the printed window, not the other fifteen hours, unless a later NAVWARN says otherwise.<\/p>\n

The date line is the second briefing fact. Work is printed as from 080600Z to 081500Z November 26. No second day is printed. No weather clause is printed. No 9 November extension is printed. Saturday night is 7 November. The prohibited morning is still 8 November. A passage plan that treats 7 November as already closed off Fournoi has under-read a box that opens at 0600Z on 8 November. A passage plan that treats 8 November as closed around the clock has over-read a 0600Z\u20131500Z window. A passage plan that carries the watch through 9\u201313 November because \u201cthe Aegean firing is a five-day series\u201d has borrowed dedicated 1342\/26\u2019s Drapano dates and dropped Fournoi\u2019s one-day kill. 1343\/26 is a numbered radio alert. It lives from 0600Z on 8 November through 1500Z on 8 November unless a later Hellenic NAVWARN cancels or amends it. 0600Z\u20131500Z in November is 0800\u20131700 Eastern European Time. Do not invent a 0700\u20131300 UTC Romanian firing window on this box.<\/p>\n

The instruction line is the third briefing fact. Avoid crossing above area. That is tighter than Wednesday morning\u2019s dedicated 1336\/26 \u201cwide berth requested.\u201d It is a live-firing sentence. It is not 1342\/26\u2019s \u201ccrossing above this area is prohibited\u201d on a FORACS-checks body. Firing exercises are the printed reason. The Hydrographic Service did not print \u201cmissile,\u201d \u201cgunnery,\u201d \u201ctorpedo,\u201d or \u201csubmarine\u201d beyond the firing-exercises line. Do not convert a Fournoi firing into dedicated 1342\/26\u2019s Drapano FORACS box because both landed on the 6 November English board. Do not convert it into dedicated 166\/26\u2019s prohibited area to navigation because both print a keep-out. Give the four points, the one day and the 0600Z\u20131500Z window. Stay out of the polygon in those hours. Do not occupy 37-32 N, 026-30 E at 1000 UTC on 8 November because \u201cSamos is open.\u201d<\/p>\n

Official NAVTEX wrap, held on this number: Irakleio Radio NAVWARN 1408\/26, ZCZC HA12 060759 UTC NOV 26, reprints the same Fournoi firing on the Hydrographic Service\u2019s English NAVTEX board: SAMOS SEA. FOURNOI ISLANDS. FIRING EXERCISES. FROM 080600Z TO 081500Z NOV 26, the same four corners, AVOID CROSSING ABOVE AREA, CANCEL THIS MSG 081600 UTC NOV 26. That cancel is on the Irakleio body, one hour after 1343\/26\u2019s 081500Z window closes. It is not printed on the Hydrographic Service 1343\/2026 English navwarn page. Hold 1408\/26 as official wrap of the same box, not as a second Fournoi piece and not as a 1343 amendment. Do not invent an 081600 UTC kill on the 1343\/26 English body. Do not invent a missing cancel as an open-ended firing. Irakleio\u2019s 7 November 1710 UTC in-force summary still lists 1408 among the 2026 numbers, with a self-cancel of 141710 UTC 14 November on that summary message.<\/p>\n

Industry-reprint colour, held separately: SeaLagom first carried 1343\/26 with a received stamp of 6 November 00:00 UTC and an updated stamp of 7 November 06:46 UTC, matching the Hydrographic Service\u2019s 6 November English board. The reprint restates the four-point box, the 8 November window, the 0600Z\u20131500Z hours and the avoid-crossing line. Hold that as colour of the official board, not as a second Fournoi piece. Saturday morning\u2019s dedicated 1342\/26 remains the Drapano FORACS box, 9\u201313 November, 0600Z\u20131600Z, eight points around 35-27 N 024-20 E, crossing prohibited. That is a five-day Cretan Sea FORACS box from 9 November. 1343\/26 is a one-day Samos firing on 8 November. Do not collapse the FORACS box onto the firing. Do not collapse the firing onto the FORACS box.<\/p>\n

What this is not<\/h2>\n

This is not a rewrite of dedicated NAVWARN 1342\/26. Saturday morning\u2019s dedicated piece remains: CRETAN SEA. CRETE ISLAND. DRAPANO POINT. Prohibition of crossing boats due to FORACS checks. From 9 until 13 November 2026. From 0600Z until 1600Z of each day. Eight-point box around 35-27 N 024-20 E. Crossing above this area is prohibited. That box sits off north Crete, west of Souda \/ Chania. 1343\/26 prints Fournoi Islands, a four-point box around 37-32 N 026-30 E, firing exercises, and a 8 November 0600Z\u20131500Z window. About two degrees east and two degrees north separate the two polygons. 8 November is the day before 1342\/26 opens. A DPA who briefs Saturday night as \u201cDrapano FORACS has moved north onto Fournoi\u201d has borrowed 1342\/26\u2019s five-day window and dropped the firing sentence. Keep those numbers on their own sheets. 1342\/26 still kills its daily window at 1600Z and its series after 13 November. 1343\/26 kills its window at 1500Z on 8 November.<\/p>\n

This is not a rewrite of dedicated NAVWARN 1336\/26. Wednesday morning\u2019s dedicated piece remains: SOUTH AIGAIO SEA, geophysical survey by NG SURVEYOR from 5 November 2026, 21-point line from 37-45.30N 023-07.20E to 37-14.63N 025-40.78E, wide berth requested, no printed end date. That line sits in the Saronic and the South Aegean, west of 026 E on its last published point. 1343\/26 prints Fournoi, a four-point firing box, and a 8 November window. A DPA who briefs Saturday night as \u201cNG SURVEYOR has moved east onto Samos\u201d has borrowed 1336\/26\u2019s hull and dropped the firing polygon. Keep those numbers on their own sheets. 1336\/26 still has no printed kill time. 1343\/26 kills at 1500Z on 8 November.<\/p>\n

This is not this afternoon\u2019s dedicated Irakleio 1411\/26, and it is not Abeille Marengo. This afternoon\u2019s dedicated piece remains: EAST CRETAN SEA \/ SOUTHEAST CRETAN SEA \/ EAST MEDITERRANEAN SEA, research operation for underwater cable installation by Abeille Marengo from 6 November 2026 until 6 March 2027, 21-point line, wide berth requested 2 NM, cancel 062200 UTC 6 March 2027. 1343\/26 names neither Abeille Marengo nor a cable track. A one-day Samos firing is not a four-month east-Med cable. Do not collapse them because both sit on the Irakleio board. NAVAREA III 0171\/26 remains wrap on dedicated 1411\/26, unused as a second Abeille Marengo piece. Official Cyprus 345\/26 remains unused as dedicated.<\/p>\n

This is not Irakleio 1409\/26, and it is not a Saronic Plateia firing filed again. Official Irakleio Radio NAVWARN 1409\/26, ZCZC HA13 061054 UTC NOV 26, remains wrap, unused as dedicated: SARONIKOS GULF, extension of activation of firing practice area Plateia on 9 November 2026 0400 UTC until 1700 UTC, and on 16 November 2026 0400 UTC until 1700 UTC, four corners around 37-47 N 023-22 E, avoid crossing, cancel 16 November 2026 1800 UTC. That is a two-day Saronic firing on 9 and 16 November, west of 024 E. 1343\/26 is a one-day Samos firing on 8 November, around 026-30 E. Do not brief Saturday night as \u201cPlateia extended onto Fournoi.\u201d Do not invent a 9 November second day on 1343\/26 because 1409\/26 opens that morning.<\/p>\n

This is not NAVWARN 1338\/26 or 1339\/26, and it is not a Thracian Sea unlit-light rewrite. Official 1338\/2026 remains unused as dedicated: THRAKIKO SEA. MARONEIA PORT. NE mole head red light 40 52 36N 025 30 26E UNLIT. Official 1339\/2026 remains unused as dedicated: THRAKIKO SEA. VISTONIKOS BAY IMEROS PORT. East mole head red light 40 56 00N 025 21 40E UNLIT. Those are Thrace coast light defects, not a Samos Sea firing box. Official 1351\/2026, English board 7 November 2026, AMVRAKIKOS GULF. AMFILOCHIA BAY. AGIOS GEORGIOS POINT. LIGHT UNLIT \u2014 wrap this run, unused as dedicated. Do not brief Saturday night as \u201cthe unlit lights became a firing exercise.\u201d Leave 1338\/26, 1339\/26 and 1351\/26 unused as dedicated unless a later NAVWARN relights them or moves those plots.<\/p>\n

This is not official 1345\/2026, 1347\/2026 or 1350\/2026, and it is not a Tragonisi wreck or a Thermaikos unlit light. The 6 November English board also lists 1345\/20026 SOUTH AEGEAN SEA. TRAGONISI ISLET. LOCATED SEMISUNK WRECK, 1347\/2026 NORTH EVVOIKOS GULF. LIGHTBUOY CHALKIDA CUT OFF AND UNLIT, and 1350\/2026 THERMAIKOS GULF. NEA MOUDANIA. LIGHT UNLIT \u2014 wrap, unused as dedicated. 1343\/26 prints none of those plots. A Fournoi firing box is not a Tragonisi wreck. Do not collapse them because they share a 6 November date line.<\/p>\n

This is not a rewrite of dedicated NAVAREA III 0169\/26. Monday 4 November\u2019s dedicated piece remains oceanographic work on the Britoil Centurion, IMO 9619177, MMSI 566921000, days 5 November 2026 to 15 February 2027, dotted-line groups A and B in the Central Mediterranean, wide receipt requested. 0169\/26 prints a different hull, a different sea, a different point-group and a 15 February end. 1343\/26 prints no hull, Samos Sea, a four-point box, and an 8 November last hour. Dedicated 0168\/26 remains weekly group 44 through 092359 UTC 9 November and still does not print 1343. A Greek coastal NAVWARN does not belong on a Spanish weekly wrapper. The 0168\/26 cancel at 092359 UTC sits the evening after 1343\/26\u2019s window; those are two clocks on two products, not a merged all-clear for the east Med. NAVAREA III 0170\/26 remains unused as dedicated pending retrieval of the English body; it is not a 1343 rewrite.<\/p>\n

This is not last night\u2019s dedicated NAVAREA IX 432\/26, not Friday morning\u2019s dedicated 431\/26, not this afternoon\u2019s dedicated 799\/26, and not tonight\u2019s dedicated UKMTO 198-26. 432\/26 remains the partially submerged container at 25-09.71N 054-54.06E, cancel 082359 UTC 8 November. 431\/26 remains the Fujairah jack-up on SKATE 3D, cancel 132359 UTC 13 November. 799\/26 remains the Varna port-and-road windows on 10 and 13 November. 198-26 remains a 7 November Advisory, bulk carrier and military forces, 18 nautical miles east of Khor Fakkan, incident time TBC. IMO remains 129 confirmed \/ 25 dead as at 6 November. A Samos Sea firing box does not belong on that tape.<\/p>\n

Operational implications<\/h2>\n

For a master already shaping a Samos, Ikaria, Fournoi, east-Aegean coastal, or Samos\u2013Patmos passage on 8 November, Saturday night is a timed keep-out problem before it is a security rewrite. The Hydrographic Service printed a four-point box off the Fournoi Islands, named firing exercises, named 080600Z to 081500Z 8 November, and named avoid crossing. An avoid-crossing sentence under a bounded firing-exercise body is a closed polygon for ships that are not in the serial. It is not AIS-optional. It is not a Samos port closure. It is not 1342\/26\u2019s five-day FORACS box. A passage plan that only budgeted 1342\/26\u2019s Drapano window from 9 November, or that treated the Aegean as clean until Monday because 1342\/26 opens then, has not budgeted a one-day box that opens at 0600Z on 8 November. Give the polygon. Stay out of it in the printed hours. Do not pass through 37-32 N, 026-30 E at 0900 UTC on 8 November because \u201cSamos pilots are working.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 8\u201313 November Aegean tape is the operational content a DPA has to get right. 1343\/26 tells the bridge to avoid a Fournoi firing box from 0600Z to 1500Z on 8 November. Dedicated 1342\/26 tells the bridge not to cross the Drapano polygon from 0600Z to 1600Z on 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13 November. Dedicated 1336\/26 still tells the bridge to give NG SURVEYOR a wide berth on a 21-point South Aegean line with no printed end. Wrap 1409\/26 still tells the bridge to avoid a Saronic Plateia firing box from 0400 UTC to 1700 UTC on 9 and 16 November. Dedicated 1411\/26 still tells the bridge that Abeille Marengo is on a 2 NM east-Med cable track through 6 March 2027. A passage plan that only plotted Drapano, or that treated 081500 UTC 8 November as an all-clear for Greek waters, has not budgeted Fournoi tomorrow morning and has not budgeted Drapano from Monday morning. Charterers asking whether \u201cthe Aegean is closed for firing until 13 November\u201d will not be answered by this file. What arrived is a one-day Samos firing that dies at 1500Z on 8 November, not a five-day Cretan Sea all-clear.<\/p>\n

Samos, Ikaria and Fournoi remain open on this text. 1343\/26 does not print a harbour-master closure, a pilot-boarding amendment, or a VHF working channel for the range. Hulls that would otherwise have cut the Ikaria\u2013Samos face inside 37-32 N, 026-29 E to 026-30 E in daylight on 8 November need a northing or southing outside the four points, or a night \/ shoulder-hour transit outside 0600Z\u20131500Z, or a west-about via Ikaria. Do not invent a 24-hour closure. Do not invent a 2 NM halo around 37-32 N 026-30 E. Plot the four corners. Stay out of the polygon in the printed hours. Report actual range activity, an unlit hull, or a close-quarters situation to JRCC Piraeus and to the company security officer. Logging 1343\/26 is not a substitute for a sighting report. Irakleio 1408\/26\u2019s 081600 UTC 8 November cancel is the working NAVTEX kill on the reprint, one hour after the Hydrographic Service window closes. Do not occupy the box at 1530 UTC because \u201c1343 printed 1500Z and I am outside the hour.\u201d Wait for 1600 UTC on the Irakleio kill, then treat the firing as past unless a later NAVWARN extends it.<\/p>\n

Keep the dedicated files on their own lines. 1342\/26 remains Saturday morning\u2019s dedicated Drapano FORACS box, 9\u201313 November, 0600Z\u20131600Z, eight points around 35-27 N 024-20 E. 1336\/26 remains Wednesday morning\u2019s dedicated NG SURVEYOR South Aegean geophysical line from 5 November with no printed end. 1411\/26 remains this afternoon\u2019s dedicated Abeille Marengo 2 NM cable track through 6 March 2027. 0169\/26 remains Monday 4 November\u2019s dedicated Britoil Centurion Central Mediterranean track through 15 February 2027. 0168\/26 remains weekly group 44 through 092359 UTC 9 November. 1408\/26 remains official wrap of tonight\u2019s 1343\/26, unused as a second Fournoi piece. 1409\/26 remains wrap, unused as dedicated. 1338\/26, 1339\/26 and 1351\/26 remain unused unlit lights. 1345\/26, 1347\/26 and 1350\/26 remain wrap. Tonight\u2019s dedicated 198-26 remains the Khor Fakkan bulk-carrier Advisory. Last night\u2019s dedicated 197-26 remains the Khasab tanker waterline explosion. Last night\u2019s dedicated 432\/26 remains the southern-Gulf container through 082359 UTC 8 November. Friday morning\u2019s dedicated 431\/26 remains the Fujairah jack-up through 132359 UTC 13 November. This afternoon\u2019s dedicated 799\/26 remains the Varna port-and-road windows on 10 and 13 November. IMO remains 129 \/ 25 as at 6 November. UKMTO now ends at 198-26 on the Advisory line and at 197-26 on the Attack line. NAVAREA IX still ends at 433\/26 as the in-force list atop dedicated 432\/26. Do not recast 7 November night as a Samos exclusion zone, as a 1342 rewrite, as a 1336 extension, as a 9 November all-clear, or as a completed 0168 weekly-list rewrite.<\/p>\n

What Operators Should Note<\/h2>\n
    \n
  • Log 1343\/26 as a one-day Fournoi firing box, not as a 1342\/26 rewrite and not as a 1336\/26 survey extension.<\/strong> Official Hellenic NAVWARN 1343\/2026, English board 6 November 2026. Samos Sea. Fournoi Islands. Firing exercises. From 080600Z to 081500Z 8 November 2026. Four-point box: 37 32 15N 026 30 03E \/ 37 32 09N 026 30 12E \/ 37 31 19N 026 29 52E \/ 37 31 47N 026 29 15E. Avoid crossing above area. The Hydrographic Service names neither hull, IMO, VHF, keep-clear radius outside the polygon, RAM status, fishing ban, weapon class nor a CANCEL THIS MSG DTG on the English navwarn body. Official Irakleio Radio NAVWARN 1408\/26 reprints the same box with cancel 081600 UTC 8 November. SeaLagom first carried the text at 00:00 UTC on 6 November, updated 06:46 UTC on 7 November. Replace nothing in the 1342\/26 folder; add this number on the Samos Sea sheet.<\/li>\n
  • Plot the four-point box, not a single circle and not a Samos closure.<\/strong> North-east corner 37 32 15N 026 30 03E. East 37 32 09N 026 30 12E. South 37 31 19N 026 29 52E. West 37 31 47N 026 29 15E. On the order of 0.6 by 0.9 nautical miles off Fournoi, between Ikaria and Samos. Ikaria\u2013Samos inshore, Fournoi approaches and the east-Aegean coastal all see a corner. Do not brief a port shutdown. Do not drop the west wall because the next port is Samos. Stay out of the polygon from 0600Z to 1500Z on 8 November. Hold Irakleio 1408\/26\u2019s 081600 UTC cancel as the NAVTEX kill on the reprint, one hour after the Hydrographic Service window.<\/li>\n
  • Hold the 8 November window and the 0600Z\u20131500Z hours.<\/strong> Prohibited morning is 8 November, not 7 November and not 9 November. Daily window 0600Z\u20131500Z, 0800\u20131700 local in November. Do not treat 7 November as already closed off Fournoi. Do not treat the box as live at 0200 UTC. Do not treat 8 November as a five-day series. Do not apply 1342\/26\u2019s 9\u201313 November Drapano dates to this number.

  • Do not invent a 24-hour Samos closure or a five-day firing series.<\/strong> 1343\/26 prints firing exercises and avoid crossing inside the polygon in the printed hours. It does not print a missile corridor, a harbour-master closure, or a night ban. Night and shoulder-hour transits outside 0600Z\u20131500Z are not a printed all-clear for other hazards; they are simply outside this prohibition. Give the four points. Stay out of the box in the window. Do not occupy 37-32 N, 026-30 E at 1000 UTC on 8 November on the strength of a Samos pilot booking alone. Do not occupy it at 1530 UTC until Irakleio 1408\/26\u2019s 081600 UTC cancel is past.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Regulas Shipping will keep lining NAVWARN 1343\/26 against Saturday morning\u2019s dedicated 1342\/26 and against Wednesday morning\u2019s dedicated 1336\/26 so operators can treat Saturday night\u2019s Samos Sea tape as an 8 November Fournoi firing box in a 0600Z\u20131500Z window, not as a Drapano FORACS extension, a South Aegean survey reprint, or a Samos port closure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
