AZERBAIJAN president Ilham Aliyev confirmed the passenger plane that crashed killing 38 people was shot down by Russia.
Aliyev made the blistering public statement after a phone call with Vladimir Putin in which the tyrant apologised for the disaster.
He confirmed the plane had been jammed by electronic warfare weapons before being shot at by the Russians.
Aliyev raged he wanted Russia to accept it was guilty of downing the plane and punish those responsible for fatally damaging the aircraft.
Speaking on state TV, he said: "Unfortunately, in the first three days we heard only absurd versions from Russia.
"We witnessed clear attempts to cover up the matter."

It comes after shamed Putin made a mealy-mouthed apology over the crash in a call with Aliyev.
But despite apologising, Vlad continued to dodge taking responsibility for the disaster.
He instead was merely sorry it happened in his airspace.

Putin apologized. That should be enough in today’s rough-and-tumble world.
So it’s “covered-up,” but he came out on (inter) national TV to sincerely apologize... for something that likely happened during a Uke drone attack.
Worse, you’re likely a paid troll according to legit sources. Most of you likely are... for real.
Since management does nothing about you scumbags - just do America and the forum a favor and go die.
The silence on this topic the first few days after it happened from the Moscow Kremlin’s dupes and fellow travellers was hilarous. There was just no way to dissemble this obviuos murder and they had to await programming. What kind of “nation” shoots down an airliner and then refuses it emergency landing in hopes its crash destroys the evidence? A nation of bandits and murderers, obviously. Sadly, the Kremlin’s armchair fan club is right back on track no matter how many people Putin’s Nazi regime mass murders. They really need another hobby.
Putin’s cult of personality has melted and his remaining followers are in denial.
Covered up for 3 days until the shrapnel damage proved it wasn’t a “bird strike”
At the risk of sounding like a Putin apologist, yes the area was subject to EW jamming, there was a drone attack in progress and jamming GPS and GLONASS navigation signals is an important part of anti drone warfare.
Why was a passenger airliner in an active combat zone? That subjected it to extreme risk of being misidentified as a hostile.
Just ask the crew of the USS Vincennes...
The “Russian Front” is escalating in both the Baltic and beyond in the Mediterranean where a Russian cargo ship was blown up on the high seas this week.

Generally it takes a chain of 7 mistakes/mechanical issues to down a plane.
That’s one of them, jamming GPS/GLONASS is another.
Borscht.
Russia launched 3 missiles at that plane.
Four more to go...
Finally someone asks the real question.
Who was authorizing a civilian airliner to land during a combined warfare attack.
Did the western powers conducting this drone attack and jamming comms
recognize that a civilian airliner was caught in the midst?
Or was the Azeri plane and its civilian mostly muslim passengers just another expendable target to use to discredit Russian defenses?
Lol!
He is a Uke Intell Op. Why he is tolerated on the FR is a mystery. There has never been a more obvious foreign operator on this site.
“ Russia launched 3 missiles at that plane.”
