Israel shoots down Syrian Su-24

srael says it has shot down a Syrian fighter jet over its airspace - the first such incident in more than 30 years.
The aircraft was hit by a Patriot missile while trying to "infiltrate" the Quneitra area of the Golan Heights, the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) said.
An Israeli defence source identified the jet as a Russian-built Sukhoi Su-24 fighter plane. Previously it was reported to have been a MiG-21 aircraft.
It flew 800 metres into Israeli airspace and tried to return to Syria after the Patriot missile was fired, he said.
The crew managed to abandon the plane in time and landed in Syrian territory, he added.
The Golan area, which Israel captured from Syria in the 1967 Middle East war, has seen clashes between the al Qaeda-linked Nusra Front and Syrian President Bashar al Assad's forces in recent weeks.
Syrian state TV confirmed Israel had shot down one of its planes, and described it as an act of aggression.
It quoted a military source saying the attack came "in the framework of (Israel's) support for the terrorist (Islamic State) and the Nusra Front".

Who the hell is allied with who over there anyway? This is like three-dimensional chess.

Wow! Those Jooos have an itchy trigger finger.
I bet $10 he was lost. Putin is taking notes and directing his elite paratroopers to make sure they don't get "lost" around the Israeli border.
