However, Russia's Ministry of Defence claims the jet was in Syrian airspace, and was shot down from the ground. Both pilots ejected themselves from the jet and could be seen parachuting down to the ground, where one has been reported as captured by Syrian Turkmen rebels who are hunting for the second pilot.
