THE pilots of a Russian fighter jet shot down by Turkish authorities have reportedly been killed, according to Syrian rebel groups.

Turkish authorities said a Russian warplane was shot down near its border with Syria after it ignored repeated warnings that it violated the country’s airspace.

Syrian rebel groups claim both the pilot and a crew member were killed after they ejected from the damaged jet plane.

A Reuters video from the Syrian rebels reportedly showed a Russian pilot badly wounded on the ground. It was sent to Reuters with a declaration that the pilot was killed during the landing.

A rebel group also said the second Russian fighter jet pilot was hit by rebel fire as he tried to guide his parachute towards Syrian-held territory.

Well, fuck.

From what I'm reading, the Russian pilots were machine-gunned by Turkmen rebels as they parachuted into Syrian territory. A graphic video has surfaced of rebels happily allahu-snackbaring around the bloodied bodies, for those interested in viewing such things.

Erdogan is going to start having all his kebabs tested for polonium.

Will be interesting to see what happens once Erdogan pushes through his reforms.

I'd nuke the sheep-fuckers out of existence.

Vlad has vowed "serious consequences". Wouldn't be surprised if some of those cruise missiles accidentally overshot their targets and hit Ankara.
