I saw this at night time, I'm not sure but I think it wasn't...

Lycia ypsilon is out of range for your area. I also think your wings were a little more translucent. Were they kind of see-through?

This looks like a moth in the genus Lycia, though I can't currently find a species match. Wikipedia says that Turkey has 4 species of Lycia, yet none of them appear to be the one you have.
