Russia accuses Israel of pushing its missing spy plane into Syrian line of fire
Russia’s defense ministry blamed Israeli military planes for creating a “dangerous” situation in Latakia Monday night, by exposing the missing IL-20 spy plane to friendly Syrian missile fire that was directed against an Israeli air raid nearby. The DoD in Moscow said 15 Russian military service people died because of Israel’s “irresponsible actions,” adding that “Russia reserves the right to take appropriate measures.”
