According to reports, eyewitnesses saw a large explosion in Huraytan, northern Syria, while three fighter jets were hovering above.
One journalist tweeted that three Turkish planes were responding to "mysterious" lock-ons from Mig-29 jets, which are used by Putin's forces.
Express.co.uk has contacted the Turkish government and the Russian military but neither could be reached for comment.

Not good. I would not thing Russia is sending their B team pilots in there, so getting shot down is not good for PR.

I don’t want to fight the Russians to defend ISIS.

One thing is certain, Russia will NOT accept its planes being shot down, particularly when it looks deliberate
hold on, we may be in for some fireworks

Maybe someone is testing out a new kind of jammer that sends a fake missile lock signal.
