NATO Warns Russia Over Turkish Airspace Violations



The Hill: NATO warns Russia after fighter jets enter Turkish airspace

The North Atlantic Treaty Organization is calling on Russia to stop violating Turkish airspace, and immediately cease its attacks on the Syrian opposition and civilians.

Russian fighter jets violated Turkey's airspace on Saturday and Sunday, according to NATO, after Moscow began an air campaign in Syria last week to bolster Syrian President Bashar Assad.

"Russian military actions have reached a more dangerous level with the recent violations of Turkish airspace on 3 October and 4 October by Russian Air Force SU-30 and SU-24 aircraft in the Hatay region," NATO said in a statement.
