The Russian Su-24 bomber jet was brought down over Syria on November 24 by an air-to-air missile fired from the Turkish F-16 fighter in response to an alleged violation of Turkish airspace. Both Russian and Syrian defense officials confirmed that the Su-24 never crossed into Turkish airspace.

In response to the incident, Moscow introduced a set of measures against Ankara. The measures, which ban or restrict the activities of Turkish organizations in Russia and prohibit Russian employers to hire Turkish citizens, are due to take effect from January 1, 2016.

Russia has invited specialists from 14 countries for deciphering of Su-24 bomber flight recorders, but only China, Great Britain agreed, according to the Russian Aerospace Forces.
