Anybody with military experience, after viewing the front line in this photo, would correctly presume that this particular unit has not been well trained and ready for prime time.
It's about a Turkish provocation over land that is Greece's; if it sounds familiar, the Chinese have been acting analogously, as have the Russians.
Khalifa Haftar's yearlong Tripoli offensive against the Ankara-backed Government of National Accord (GNA) began to collapse. Believed to have been supplied to the Libyan strongman as early as last year by his backers [Iran's stooges] in the Gulf, the Russian system was meant to be used as a trump card against Turkey's combat unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) air interdiction operations... Analysis of open source data has estimated that up to 9 Pantsir units were lost in quick succession to UAV strikes during May, with footage of the strikes going viral on social media. To add insult to injury, a tenth Pantsir system was dramatically captured by GNA forces, and to great fanfare paraded through Tripoli as a war trophy. It is speculated that the captured Pantsir's final fate is to be picked apart for intelligence purposes.Libya: A Catastrophe for Russia's Pantsir S1 Air Defense System

I was in Greece 40 years ago at the time of the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. For a couple of days that dominated the headlines. Then it was back to the usual fare--every day headlines denouncing Turkey for some violation of Greek rights.
If only they hadn't lost the battle of Manzikert.

The Christian Greeks or the muslim Turks.
