Title: Turkey downs Syria military jet 'in airspace violation'
Post by: mhm on March 23, 2014, 07:44:08 PM
Turkey's Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan says its armed forces have shot down a Syrian military jet which had violated its airspace.

He warned such action by Syria merited a "heavy response".

But Syria accused Turkey of "blatant aggression", saying the plane had been over Syrian territory at the time.
