Turkish forces have shot down a Syrian military jet they say was violating their airspace despite warnings.

土耳其军队击落一架叙利亚军用飞机，称该飞机不顾警告侵犯土耳其领空。

A state-owned Turkish news agency carried pictures it said showed the Syrian jet being shot down

Turkey's Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan warned such action by Syria merited a "heavy response".

But Syria accused Turkey of "blatant¹（喧嚣的，公然的） aggression²", saying the plane had been over Syrian territory at the time.

The incident reportedly occurred in an area where Syrian rebels and government forces have been fighting for control of a border crossing.

Turkey and Syria - once allies - share more than 500 miles (800km) of border.

Turkey has broadly sided with the rebels in Syria's war since October 2011.

Turkish forces launched artillery³ strikes on Syrian targets in late 2012 after the Syrians shot down a Turkish jet.

However, the BBC's James Reynolds in Istanbul says neither side is interested in a direct, sustained conflict.
