Russians are just as pissed as Putin about Turkey shooting down their jet
Some Russians are sharing rage on social media over Turkey's downing of a Russian military plane on Tuesday with a hashtag that translates as "stab in the spine."
УдарВСпину, or "stab in the back," comes from Russian President Vladimir Putin's remarks in the aftermath of the downing of the Russian Sukhoi Su-24 military plane.
"This event is beyond the normal framework of fighting against terrorism," Putin said during a meeting in Sochi with King Abdullah II of Jordan. "Of course, our military is doing heroic work against terrorism...But the loss today is a stab in the back, carried out by the accomplices of terrorists."
