Israel is responsible for the destruction of the Russian Il-20 off the coast of Syria.

Destroyed 17 September 2018 year off the coast of Syria, the Russian military aircraft Il-20, could be shot down by Israeli soldiers. This is indicated by the fact that at the time of the disappearance of the aircraft from the radar, there were Israeli planes in the sky, while the French frigate, also attacking the coast of Syria, had already fired cruise missiles.

According to preliminary data, the Il-20 radar reconnaissance aircraft was flying with disabled transponders, as a result of which, it could be regarded as a military aircraft of the Syrian or Iranian Air Force. The military analyst notes the fact that the French military frigate would not launch cruise missiles when Israeli military aircraft are in the line of fire, as a result of which, suspicions fall only on Israel, which, among other things, refused to comment on the situation in any way.

"The Russian Il-20 disappeared in 35 kilometers from the military supply base in Tartous, namely, near the Syrian city, Israeli fighters F-16 were spotted. The probability that the French cruise missile deviated by 150 kilometers and got into a military aircraft, you know, is minimal ", - stressed the specialist Avia.pro.
