    The issue of Russian sorties in Syria was magnified in recent days after Turkey downed a Su-24 fighter jet that it claims entered its air space near the border.

    According to Israeli military officials, such a scenario is not in danger of repeating itself in the skies over the Golan Heights.

    “The Russian military is a new, key player which we are not ignoring,” a senior military official told reporters on Thursday. “There is a clear boundary here, and they are busy with their matters, and we are busy with ours.”
