Ankara: Turkish warplanes shot down a drone in
Turkish air space near the Syrian border on Friday and its nationality
has not yet been identified, a senior government official said.
The
military said earlier in a statement that it had shot down an
unidentified aircraft after it continued on its trajectory despite three
warnings, in line with the NATO member's rules of engagement.
The Russian air force officially informed
the Turkish military on Thursday about the violations and about steps
it would take to prevent a repetition.
Broadcaster NTV said the done was brought down around 3 km (1.9 miles) inside Turkish air space.
Two
Russian jets violated Turkish air space earlier in October, bringing
the Syrian conflict across NATO's borders, and Turkey has warned it
would respond if the violations continued.
The Russian air force
officially informed the Turkish military on Thursday about the
violations and about steps it would take to prevent a repetition.
Turkey has also reported unidentified aircraft and Syria-based missile air defence systems harassing its warplanes.
The iPad Pro is, at first glance, completely crazy. A giant iPad with all the limitations of iOS, coupled with added bulk that makes it harder to tote, and a price tag that starts at Rs. 70,000 , all make it a hard sell.

At that price, you can't really compare it to the iPad Air 2 , the last 10-inch model to be released, with an MRP of Rs. 49,900 for the 128GB variant.

This week, EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy joined private and public sector leaders for a second annual White House roundtable discussion about the progress made and new steps taken to curb emissions of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), potent greenhouse gases used in refrigeration and air conditioning. Administrator McCarthy announced several new actions the agency will take to help support a smooth transition to climate-friendly alternatives to HFCs. "EPA is working closely with industry leaders to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, transition to climate-friendly refrigerants, and deploy advanced refrigeration technologies,” said EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy. “The powerful combination of EPA’s regulatory actions and innovations emerging from the private sector have put our country on track to significantly cut HFC use and deliver on the goals of the President’s Climate Action Plan.” Among the actions announced today, EPA proposed a rule that would improve t...
