An Israeli army delegation led by Israeli Air Force chief Maj. Gen. Amikam Norkin was to fly to Moscow Thursday morning to present the IDF’s findings on Monday’s incident in which a Russian plane was accidentally shot down by Syrian fire during an Israeli missile strike.

The Israeli military said its fighter jets were targeting a Syrian military facility involved in providing weapons for Iran’s proxy Hezbollah militia and has insisted it warned Russia of the coming raid in accordance with deconfliction agreements.

The army said Norkin and his team would present Russian officials with “a full rundown of the event and all of its aspects, including the intelligence [that led to the strike] and the main findings of the IDF internal inquiry, as well as the Iran’s ongoing efforts to provide strategic weaponry to Hezbollah and establish itself in Syria.”

Norkin will be joined by Brig. Gen. Erez Maisel, the head of the IDF’s Foreign Relations Division, and other senior officers from the Air Force and the Intelligence and Operations directorates.

The Kremlin has said Russian experts will carefully study the data that the air force chief will deliver.

Netanyahu ga poslao, ajde sada tamo pa im ti objašnjavaj 
Nesporno je da su se koristili zaklonom, a prijepor je koliko su bili blizu, kada su se odmaknuli i kada su obavijestili ruse.
