Turkey closed its airspace for Russian military jets

Turkey closed its airspace for Russian military jets following the recent tension in Syria’s Idlib.

Four planes, including a Tu-154 and two Su-24M of the Russian Aerospace Forces were banned from entering Turkey’s airspace.

The four Russian planes were forced to travel through Iran, then Iraq making the journey longer. This move by Turkey won’t effect Russia’s operations in Syria however it’s an obvious sign of the deterioration of the two countries relations.
