An audio recording has emerged purporting to be the recording of Turkey warning the Russian plane.

The voice is heard saying in English: “Unknown air traffic position onto Humeymim 020, redirect to 26 miles. This is Turkish Air Force speaking – en guard. You are approaching Turkish airspace. Change your heading south immediately.”

Earlier today, the surviving pilot claimed that he had not received any visual or radio warning from Turkey – contradicting Turkey’s claim that they warned them numerous times.

The recording was passed on to TV news channel Al-Arabiya by a civilian pilot for Lebanese airline MEA in the sky at the time.

He claimed that this event had happened multiple times in the last week, with each warning met with silence from Russia. This clam is not verified.

Russia will call on the United Nations to investigate funding channels linked to terrorist groups operating in Syria, in an apparent diplomatic response to Turkey’s downing of a Russian jet, writes Roland Oliphant.

More than 20 countries, including Russia, the United States, and Britain, agreed to draw up a list of commonly recognised terrorist organisations at peace talks in Vienna earlier this month.

“I think that now we will insist that besides this list, members of the Vienna group must also agree to common understanding on those channels by which terrorists receive resources. and support,” he said.

The comments came after Vladimir Putin accused Turkey of effectively facilitating Isil’s support network by turning a blind eye to oil smuggling through its territory.

Footage filmed at a crossing on the Syrian side of the border with Turkey’s southern province of Kilis showed trucks burning on Wednesday after what aid workers said was an apparent air strike.

The head of the rebel-run border crossing in the same area said separately that air strikes hit a garage for commercial trailers, killing three people.

“Our teams helped to extinguish the fire… The trucks do not belong to us and there is no information on who bombed them,” Mustafa Ozbek, an Istanbul-based official from the Humanitarian Relief Foundation (IHH), told Reuters.

The aid worker who filmed the aftermath initially said it appeared aid trucks had been targeted. SOURCE

“Blue Dragon” On Australian Shores

Sure, it was a sea slug that washed ashore Australia’s Gold Coast last week, and dragons are still as fictional as unicorns, but “blue dragon” is a worthy nickname for so unusual a creature.

Beach-goer Lucinda Fry captured the blue dragon on video, catching it while it was most likely hunting for food, and posted her find to the Gold Coast Bulletin’s Facebook page, providing an up-close look at a rarely-seen creature.

Known to biologists as Glaucus atlanticus, blue dragons are a species of nudibranch sea slug that swim most tropical and temperate oceans the world over, following food. The majority of nudibranches – that is, soft-bodied gastropod mollusks – prefer skimming the ocean floor, but the species known as “blue dragon” hunts closer to the surface, floating upside-down to leverage the surface tension of the water, effectively hitching a ride on the ocean’s currents.
