Russian Military Plane Shot Down By Syrian Missile; Kremlin Blames Israel

Syrian anti-aircraft systems shot down a Russian airplane with 14 people aboard moments after an alleged Israeli airstrike against a Syrian military installation on Monday night. Russia is blaming Israel, claiming that the Israeli government’s warning did not come in time to remove their forces away from the area of the attack.
“We view the actions of the Israeli military as hostile,” Russian defense ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov told Russian state television. “As a result of the irresponsible actions of the Israeli military, 15 Russian service personnel perished.”
“We retain the right to an appropriate response,” Konashenkov concluded.
The incident comes in the wake of an attack on a Syrian military installation in the Latakia region of Syria at 11:00 PM local time. It is believed they were attacking the Syrian Organization for Technological Industries, a Syrian military facility responsible for the majority of Syria’s chemical weapons and missiles. Russia claims four Israeli F-16 warplanes carried out the attack. Syrian surface-to-air missiles responded and it is believed they downed the Russian aircraft.
The Russian military said Israel notified the Russian side about the planned operation only a minute in advance, and that Israeli controllers would have seen the Russian plane, which was coming in to land.

The Russian Ministry of Defense cleared up the confusion surrounding the overnight downing of a Russian Ilyushin-20 reconnaissance plane on Tuesday when a spokesman revealed that Israel was indeed responsible for the attack, which resulted in the deaths of 15 Russian servicemen.
According to the Wall Street Journal, the plane was accidentally brought down by an aging Syrian S-200 defense system after Russia had scrambled its jets to respond to an attack by four Israeli F-16s on Syrian government targets. Israeli notified Russia of its attack over a shared hotline less than a minute before beginning the strike, giving the Kremlin little time to respond.READ MORE https://www.infowars.com/russia-threatens-adequate-response-against-israel-for-downed-plane/
