ANKARA, Turkey (AP) — Turkey’s military says
bodies of two pilots whose jet was shot down by Syria have been found in
the sea bed.
State-run TRT television says a US deep-sea
exploration vessel, E/V Nautilus, found the bodies in eastern
Mediterranean on Wednesday.
Syrian forces shot down the RF-4 plane on June
22. Turkey says it was hit in international airspace while Syria
insists it was flying inside Syrian airspace.
The downing of the plane has worsened already tense Turkish-Syrian relations.
