It's amazing how Euro-Asian border is moving
The Kaliningrad region was until 1945 a part of Germany (East Prussia), western Belarus belonged to Poland until 1939, western and south-western Ukraine belonged to Poland until 1939, and to Czechoslovakia (Hungary during the WW2) and Romania until 1944.
One could say that one of the results of WW2 was moving the borders of the continents
. As to 3 ITA, they assigned Turkey to Europe and set the border between North and South America south of Mexico

Returning from off-topic: it seems then the international SIMs with the best coverage in Africa and Near/Middle East region of Asia, namely Hop and 09 will not meet jervin123's basic requirement - they have no functional SMS service
