Turkmen forces claim they shot dead two Russian pilots
Turkmen forces in Syria claim they have shot dead the two pilots of a Russian fighter jet downed by Turkey near its border.
A deputy commander of a Turkmen brigade said the pilots were shot in the air as they descended with parachutes.
Alpaslan Celik, a deputy commander in a Syrian Turkmen brigade said: "Both of the pilots were retrieved dead. Our comrades opened fire into the air and they died in the air."
The commander was speaking near the Syrian village of Yamadi as he held what he said was a piece of a pilot's parachute. Last updated Tue 24 Nov 2015
Pootie-poot will not be pleasedf.
This will not end well. Turkey just kicked the hornets nest.
These guys are 20 kinds of stupid
Now Spetsnaz has a name, a unit, and a location
Time to reprogram some of those cruise missiles.
Turkey hiding behind NATO while protecting their ISIS pals.
That’s not really cricket, is it?
Despicable.
Blatant violation of the Geneva Convention.
Russia needs to FAE the entire region or test a few tactical crowd pleasers.
There will soon be a lot of dead Turkmen.
No definitely against the law of armed conflict and Geneva convention. Turkey wasn’t known for abiding by them in WWI (course each side had their issues occasionally), but joining NATO is supposed to mean something. Now it could just be another domino chain just like the start of that war.
I’m sure McCains’s butt-boys will along shortly to explain this.

I am not into Snuff films. However, that film clip put a smile on my face when I first saw it.
“Blatant violation of the Geneva Convention.”
Convention, Geneva Convention,they don’t need no stinking Convention.
You and your comrades are dead men walking.
They are terrorist, they do not belong to the Geneva Convention.
I didn't know that. Looks like Turkey is in trouble. This whole region is pure mixed up shi!. WWIII, here we come because Turkey is a NATO nation. What now?
