Russian MoD presented a detailed 3D timeline of Il-20 downing in Syria on September 17.

Israeli Air Force had notified Russia of its planned attacks on Syrian targets simultaneously with the beginning of the strikes (1 min before), violating 2015 bilateral agreements to prevent incidents in Syrian airspace.

The Israeli Air Force misled Russia by providing wrong information about the area of the planned air strikes in Syria on September 17, thus preventing the Russian Il-20 from moving to a safe zone. Israel provided information about strikes in 'north' Syria instead of 'west'.

The Il-20 commander being in the north of Syria received a task to leave the mission area in north Syrian Idlib region and return back to the military base (in south area) while Israeli jets attacked western Latakia province.

Russian MoD stressed that talk was conducted in Russian, Russian Defense Ministry has a record of the conversation.

At 21:51 the Syrian AD forces started to repel the Israeli attack and launched anti-aircraft missiles. After the strike, Israeli jets took a patrolling area 70km west off the Syrian coast, set up jamming and probably prepared to attack again.
