This is the third known case of Turkish military and pro-Turkish terrorists using air defense systems against Russian military aircraft, moreover, in just one week.
Given the fact that Turkey is on the path to escalating the situation, the consequences could be very serious.
Erdogan and Putin held talks on Syria
As part of the emergency talks between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Turkish President Recep Erdogan, the leaders of the two countries agreed on the need to implement the Sochi Accords on Idlib, however, they obviously could not come to a common decision, as evidenced by the ongoing bombing and attempts by terrorists to break through the defense of the SAA.
Experts believe that in the near future, the SAA will not conduct an offensive, taking up defense, however, in the case of attempts by militants to conduct a counter-offensive operation, a large-scale attack may be announced, including the release of terrorists from the southern part of Idlib is of particular interest.
We only promise them troubles, and they constantly bring them to us.
