The reason is because all the uploads should pass through ogero ,than from ogero to cyprus by a fiber optic wire .There are currently 3 wires in the sea only two operating one for the uploads and one for the downloads and the 3rd(not in service) to backup the other 2 .When the 3rd wire operates there will be less traffic and better pings.Here most of the ISPs take the downloads through satellites which will double the pings and make it worse .
Solutions :
Another route from turkey to Lebanon through Syria(fiber optics).
Or legalize uploads to satellites .
