was brought down by a weapon manufactured by Iran, Hurriyet Daily

A Syrian expert in Damascus reportedly said the Turkish plane was
shot down by an Iranian anti-aircraft weapon that was purchased by
Syria two years ago.
The unidentified expert said the Turkish plane was flying at a low
altitude to avoid Syrian radars. "Turkish personnel were unaware
that Syria possessed weapons that could hit targets flying at such
low altitudes."
