HOPE THIS WON'T ESCALATE INTO A FULL BLOWN WAR - A warning shot was fired at Turkish vessel by a Russian Destroyer in the Aegean Sea, after the Turkish vessel failed to respond to visual signals and flares - Russian defence ministry say.
Russian destroyer Smetlivy was unable to establish radio contact with the approaching Turkish Ship and when the vessel was 600 metres away, the destroyer fired with small arms and the Turkish vessel quickly changed course.
Tension between Moscow and Ankara continue to mount since a Turkish jet downed a Russian bomber along Turkey's border with Syria last month, killing one on the Russian Pilots.
Russian destroyer Smetlivy was unable to establish radio contact with the approaching Turkish Ship and when the vessel was 600 metres away, the destroyer fired with small arms and the Turkish vessel quickly changed course.
Moscow has imposed a series of economic sanctions against Ankara after the incident, sparking the biggest crisis between the two countries since the Cold War.
