Confusion swirled over a possible breakthrough in the tanker standoff in the Middle East on Tuesday after Gibraltar scotched Iranian media reports that an Iranian tanker was due to be released. The Fars news agency said that Grace 1, seized by British Royal Marines off Gibraltar on suspicion that it was taking 2.1m barrels of oil to Syria in breach of an EU arms embargo, was going to be released on Tuesday evening.

Dramatic video clips posted online show the warplane being shot out of the sky - apparently with a portable surface-to-air missile - before crashing in a huge fireball.

Afterwards, Russia retaliated with air strikes on the area where the plane was shot down, killing at least 30 "terrorists", the Defence Ministry said. Russia, with help from Turkey, was … [Read more...] about Syrian rebels shoot down Russian fighter jet and kill pilot as he pulled out gun and resisted capture
