I keep hearing about it, but I’m not seeing any pictures. No pictures = It didn’t happen.

I tend to doubt this though if it happened, I would not be surprised for it to be hushed up and probably a slim chance there would be pictures as well. Not believing until there is something more.
To: AlaskaErik
I agree. It’s old fake news at this point.

Does someone here knows what constitutes an airspace violation?
1 meter?
100 meters?
1 kilometer?
And is it time dependent as well?

Just not buying this. Muslim Turkey blasts a Russian jet out of the sky.
Did they use camel dung?

Not everything that occurs gets photographed. An airplane high in the sky would be gone before some citizen journalist / goat shepherd of North Turkey could grab his camera, turn it on, take a photo and upload it to the Internet.
Given that NATO announced that it will send troops to Turkey to defend its ally in the event of another Russian breach of its borders, this event could be very significant - whether it occurred or not !

"Not everything that occurs gets photographed." The other side of the coins is with computer assisted photography software, what did not happen could be shown to have happened.

All reports have the same disclaimer up front, this one in Italics different from the other text
Social media users said there was a large explosion in Huraytan
Social Media??
almost like that part is talking points code...
Hmmm

All of these “Reports” seem to be sourced from a Ukrainian regime Propaganda source, Censor.net.

Not everything that occurs gets photographed. There should be some wreckage on the ground. No pictures = It didn't happen.

I don’t believe the story, but they would use F-16’s sold to them by us.

Russian planes are based in Latakia which is very close to the Turkish border.
Turks have protested to the Russian embassy about Russian planes locking their radars on Turkish F-16’s but their is still no official word about any shooting from either government which makes this rumor doubtful.
