The Russian Ministry of Defense published a 3D video Sunday on Facebook, reconstructing the crash of the Il-20 plane in Syria.

The Russian Il-20 military aircraft, which was 22 miles off the Syrian coast, was shot down on September 17, while four Israeli F-16 jets were bombing Syrian targets in the province of Latakia. According to Moscow, the IAF pilots used the Russian plane as a shield against the Syrian air defense.
