An angry crowd demonstrating against Turkey’s recent downing of a Russian warplane, which violated the Turkish airspace, attacked the building Wednesday, Anadolu Agency’s correspondent in the Russian capital reported.

Windows in the second and third floors of the building were smashed.

Photographs on Twitter showed the street outside the embassy on Rostovskiy Pereulok covered in debris.

On Nov. 25, Russian Defense Ministry confirmed that its Russian SU-24 fighter jet had been shot down, which crashed in the Syrian region of Bayirbucak close to Yayladagi district of southern Hatay province.

This was not the first time Russian fighter jets had violated Turkish airspace.

In early October, Russian warplanes breached Turkish airspace for which Russian officials apologized and pledged that no such incident would be repeated.

Turkey had also renewed its warning to implement engagement rules, including a military response to violations of Turkish airspace.
