A Turkish F-16 fighter has shot down an Armenian Air Force Su-25, Yerevan has announced. It comes three days after a military conflict between Armenia and neighboring Azerbaijan broke out over the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh region.
 
Officials in Yerevan said the incident took place in Armenian airspace and that the pilot of the Soviet-designed Su-25 was killed.
 
The attack comes hours after the Turkish regime said that it would help Azerbaijan repel “Armenian aggression,” offering both diplomatic and military assistance. Armenia said earlier that it was prepared to use Russian-made Iskander ballistic missiles in the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh region if Turkey – a member of the US-led NATO bloc – deploys its American-built F-16 fighter jets in support of the Azeri offensive.
 
Meanwhile, Azeri Defense Ministry declared that it would destroy the Armenian S-300 missiles which were transported towards Karabakh region.
