Syria mengutuk serangan itu sebagai "jenayah baru yang dilakukan oleh kumpulan pengganas dan negeri-negeri yang menaja dan melengkapkan militan" dalam "cubaan terdesak untuk mengekalkan kebenaran dari DUNIA."

PBB Timbalan Jurucakap Farhan Haq juga agak mengkritik insiden itu dengan berkata PBB masih "bimbang" mengenai serangan ke atas wartawan di Syria.

"Kami mahu mereka berhenti, serta serangan ke atas orang awam secara keseluruhannya," Haq kepada TASS.

The RT team consisting of correspondents Roman Kosarev and RT Arabic’s Sargon Hadaya took an almost direct hit from an anti-tank missile on Tuesday near the village of Al-Dagmashliya in the province of Latakia. The car transporting the journalists through the government-controlled territory was hit by a missile apparently coming from the Al Nusra-controlled town of Salma some 2.5 km away.

Kosarev suffered a concussion while his colleague from the Arabic had pieces of shrapnel lodge in his back and leg. TASS reporter Alexander Yelistratov also traveling in the car was injured by shrapnel in his hand. They were treated by Russian medics at the military base.

The crew, Kosarev says, survived only thanks to the body armor that they were wearing – and the Syrian army who promptly escorted them back to the base.

Syria condemned the attack as a “new crime committed by terror groups and the states which are sponsoring and equipping militants” in a “desperate attempt to keep the truth from the world.”

The UN Deputy Spokesman Farhan Haq has also somewhat criticized the incident, saying that the United Nations remains “concerned” about the attacks on journalists in Syria.

“We want them to stop, as well as attacks on civilians as a whole,” Haq told TASS.

"IS mempunyai wang yang besar, beratus-ratus berjuta-juta atau berbilion-bilion dolar, menjual minyak. Di samping itu mereka dilindungi oleh tentera sebuah negara keseluruhan. Satu boleh memahami mengapa mereka bertindak begitu berani dan terang-terangan. Mengapa mereka membunuh orang dengan cara yang kejam itu. Mengapa mereka melakukan perbuatan pengganas di seluruh DUNIA, termasuk di tengah-tengah Eropah, "kata Presiden Rusia Vladimir Putin pada Selasa, selepas F16 Turki menjatuhkan jet Su-24 Rusia berhampiran sempadan Turki-Syria.

“IS has big money, hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars, from selling oil. In addition they are protected by the military of an entire nation. One can understand why they are acting so boldly and blatantly. Why they kill people in such atrocious ways. Why they commit terrorist acts across the world, including in the heart of Europe,” said Russian President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday, after a Turkish F16 downed a Russian Su-24 jet near the Turkish-Syrian border.

Oktober lalu, Amerika Syarikat Setiausaha Bahagian Keganasan dan Perisikan Kewangan David Cohen berkata Negara Islam (IS) yang berpendapatan $ 1 juta sehari dari jualan minyak. "Menurut maklumat, kerana bulan lalu, ISIL [sekarang lebih dikenali sebagai ISIS] adalah menjual minyak pada harga diskaun besar kepada pelbagai tengah, termasuk dari Turki, yang kemudian diangkut minyak untuk dijual semula. Ia juga didapati bahawa dari minyak yang berasal dari wilayah di mana ISIL beroperasi telah dijual kepada Kurd di Iraq, dan kemudian dijual semula ke dalam Turki, "katanya.

Menurut Perdana Menteri Rusia Dmitry Medvedev, orang tengah di Turki bukan usahawan sahaja, tetapi pegawai-pegawai Ankara. Turki melindungi Negara Islam (IS) kerana "kepentingan kewangan langsung beberapa pegawai Turki yang berhubungan dengan pembekalan produk minyak ditapis oleh tumbuh-tumbuhan dikawal oleh ISIS."

Last October, the US Under Secretary for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence David Cohen said Islamic State was earning $1 million a day from oil sales. “According to our information, as of last month, ISIL [now more commonly known as ISIS] was selling oil at substantially discounted prices to a variety of middlemen, including some from Turkey, who then transported the oil to be resold. It also appears that some of the oil emanating from territory where ISIL operates has been sold to Kurds in Iraq, and then resold into Turkey,” he said.

According to Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev, the middlemen in Turkey are not only entrepreneurs, but are Ankara officials. Turkey is protecting Islamic State because of “direct financial interest of some Turkish officials relating to the supply of oil products refined by plants controlled by ISIS.”

Downed in 17 seconds: Where Turkey’s story of Su-24 violating airspace just does not add up (menjatuhkan dalam 17 saat: Di mana cerita Turki Su-24 ruang udara melanggar hanya tidak menambah) http://on.rt.com/6xih 

1:45 PM - 25 Nov 2015

Penganalisis politik Rusia Igor Yushkov daripada Kumpulan Wang Keselamatan Tenaga Kebangsaan berkata, operasi anti-keganasan Moscow di Syria menjadikan perniagaan itu lebih sukar.

"Pada masa kini ruangan trak perlu bersurai dan muatan mereka telah berkembang lebih kecil. Sebelum pembeli operasi akan melawat telaga minyak sendiri, kini mereka terpaksa menganjurkan satu kelompok baru, "katanya (told) kepada Gazeta.ru. Tambahnya, perahan minyak akan berkurangan kerana ISIS tidak mempunyai pakar yang berkelayakan.

Seseorang anggota majlis pakar Kesatuan Industri Minyak Rusia Eldar Kasayev berkata Negara Islam (IS) menjual minyak pada $ 15-25 setong, yang jauh lebih murah daripada penanda aras Brent, diniagakan pada $ 45-50.

"Dengan menjual semula, Ankara mempunyai peluang untuk mendapatkan pendapatan tambahan dan terus mengebom Kurdi, berkata radikal pengeboman," kata beliau.

Russian political analyst Igor Yushkov from the National Energy Security Fund said Moscow’s anti-terror operation in Syria makes such business much more difficult.

“Nowadays the truck columns have to disperse and their payload has grown smaller. Before the operation buyers would visit the oilfields themselves, now they have had to organize a new cluster,” he told Gazeta.ru. He added that oil extraction will decrease because ISIS lacks qualified specialists.

A member of the expert council of the Russian Oil Industry Union Eldar Kasayev said Islamic State is selling oil at $15–25 per barrel, which is much cheaper than the Brent benchmark, trading at $45-50.

"By reselling it, Ankara has the opportunity to earn extra income and continue to bomb the Kurds, saying its bombing radicals,” he said.

Jamaica♪♫(Caribbean) - Pengemudi Su-24 Rusia ditembak jatuh oleh jet pejuang Turki pada Selasa menegaskan bahawa pesawat itu tidak menyeberang ke ruang udara Turki, dan berkata dia tidak diberi amaran visual radio sebelum melepaskan tembakan.

‘Turkish jets gave us no warning before shooting’ - rescued pilot of downed Russian Su-24

The navigator of the Russian Su-24 shot down by a Turkish fighter jet on Tuesday insists that his plane did not cross into Turkey’s airspace, and says he was given no visual or radio warning before being fired at.

"Ianya  adalah mustahil bahawa kami melanggar ruang udara mereka walaupun untuk kali yang ke-2," Konstantin Murakhtin kepada RT dan lain-lain media Rusia. "Kami terbang pada ketinggian 6,000 meter dalam cuaca benar-benar jelas, dan saya mempunyai kawalan jumlah laluan penerbangan kami di seluruhnya."

“It’s impossible that we violated their airspace even for a second,” Konstantin Murakhtin told RT and other Russian media. “We were flying at an altitude of 6,000 meters in completely clear weather, and I had total control of our flight path throughout.”

Dan juga menafikan dakwaan Ankara bahawa pesawat itu di ruang udara Turki, Murakhtin, yang mengatakan dia tahu kawasan misi "seperti belakang tangan saya," juga menyangkal dakwaan pegawai Turki 'bahawa juruterbang telah diberi amaran berkali-kali.

"Sebenarnya, tidak ada amaran sama sekali. Tidak melalui radio, mahupun visual, jadi kami tidak pada bila-bila menyesuaikan laluan. Anda perlu memahami perbezaan dalam kelajuan antara pengebom taktikal seperti Su-24, dan juga F16 itu. Jika mereka mahu memberi amaran kepada kami, mereka boleh dekat di atas sayap kami, "kata Murakhtin, yang kini berehat di pangkalan udara Rusia di Latakia, utara Syria.

"Kerana ia adalah, peluru berpandu memukul belakang pesawat kami entah dari mana. Kami tidak mempunyai masa untuk membuat gerakan mengelak."

Ketika pesawat itu dilanda lalu turun di Syria, 2 juruterbang dikeluarkan. Kapten Sergey Rumyantsev terbunuh, dengan orangTurk pasukan pemberontak mendakwa mereka ditembak mati ketika ia masih pada payung terjun.

Murakhtin diekstrak dalam satu operasi bersama 12 jam oleh pasukan khas Rusia dan Syria, di mana marine Rusia trrkorban.

Para juruterbang berusia 39 tahun itu, yang memenangi anugerah Top Navigator di terbesar persaingan ketenteraan terbang Rusia tahun lepas, kata beliau akan meminta untuk kembali kepada perkhidmatan barisan hadapan sebaik sahaja dia patut diisytiharkan.

"Saya perlu 'membayar balik' hutang untuk ketua pasukan saya," kata Murakhtin.

Kejadian itu telah membawa kepada Rusia menuduh Turki ahli NATO sebuah "provokasi yang dirancang," sebagai tentera kerjasama telah digantung di antara kedua-dua negeri. Kedua-dua pihak, bagaimanapun, telah berikrar untuk mengelakkan peningkatan lanjut, dengan mesyuarat dirancang antara menteri luar.

Turki telah menyokong kuasa-kuasa anti-kerajaan di Syria sejak pemberontakan meletus terhadap Bashar Assad pada tahun 2011. Rusia telah berpegang kuat dengan ajaran disokong Assad, dan telah menjalankan kempen serangan udara atas permintaannya sejak September.

Kedua-dua Rusia dan Turki telah mengutuk Negara Islam (IS), tetapi juga menuduh antara satu sama lain untuk membolehkan kemajuan, dengan Vladimir Putin memanggil menembak jatuh jet Rusia "menikam dari belakang oleh keganasan rakan sejenayah."

As well as denying Ankara’s assertions that the plane was in Turkey’s airspace, Murakhtin, who says he knows the mission area "like the back of my hand," also refuted Turkish officials’ claims that the pilots were warned repeatedly.

“In actual fact, there were no warnings at all. Neither through the radio, nor visually, so we did not at any point adjust our course. You need to understand the difference in speed between a tactical bomber like a Su-24, and that of the F16. If they wanted to warn us, they could have sat on our wing,” said Murakhtin, who is currently recuperating at Russia’s airbase in Latakia, northern Syria.

“As it was, the missile hit the back of our plane out of nowhere. We didn’t even have time to make an evasive maneuver.”

As the plane was hit and went down in Syria, the two pilots ejected. Captain Sergey Rumyantsev was killed, with a rebel Turkmen brigade claiming they shot him to death while he was still parachuting.

Murakhtin was extracted in a 12-hour joint operation by Russian and Syrian special forces, in which a Russian marine died.

The 39-year-old airman, who won the Top Navigator award at Russia’s biggest military flying competition last year, says he will ask to return to front-line service as soon as he is declared fit.

“I must ‘pay back’ the debt for my captain,” said Murakhtin.

The incident has led to Russia accusing NATO member Turkey of a “planned provocation,” as military co-operation has been suspended between the two states. Both sides, however, have vowed to avoid further escalation, with a meeting planned between foreign ministers.

Turkey has been supporting anti-government forces in Syria since a rebellion broke out against Bashar Assad in 2011. Russia has staunchly backed Assad, and has been conducting an airstrike campaign at his request since September.

Both Russia and Turkey have condemned Islamic State, but have also accused each other of enabling its progress, with Vladimir Putin calling the downing of the Russian jet “a stab in the back by the accomplices of terrorism.”
