[Regnum] The MQ-9 Reaper unmanned aerial vehicle of the so-called international coalition led by the United States made a dangerous approach to a Su-35 multirole fighter of the Russian Aerospace Forces in the skies over Syria. This was reported by the deputy head of the Center for Reconciliation of Opposing Sides (CROS) in the Arab Republic, Oleg Ignasyuk.
“In the area of the settlement of Es-Sukhna in the province of Homs, there was once again a dangerous approach of an MQ-9 Reaper unmanned aerial vehicle of the “coalition” with a Su-35 aircraft of the Russian Aerospace Forces, which was carrying out a planned flight in the airspace of Syria,” Ignasyuk said during a briefing on July 14.
He stressed that the collision was avoided thanks to the actions of the Russian pilot, who took the necessary measures in a timely manner.
In addition, over the past 24 hours, the Center for Strategic and Inter-Aircraft Monitoring recorded eight cases of violations of the rules for the use of Syrian airspace by coalition aircraft, including a pair of F-15 fighters and a pair of Rafale fighters.

As reported by the Regnum news agency, a similar incident occurred on July 12, when an American drone came dangerously close to a Russian Su-35 in the As-Sukhna area of the Homs province. The fighter pilot managed to prevent a collision. Before this, the deputy head of the Center for Strategic and Inter-Aircraft Defense in Syria, Yuri Popov, reported a dangerous approach of an An-30 of the Russian Aerospace Forces to a Typhoon fighter of the "coalition".
On July 10, the Russian Aerospace Forces carried out high-precision strikes on targets of illegal armed groups in the Syrian province of Idlib, including a militant training camp and a workshop for the production of unmanned aerial vehicles. As a result of the strikes, 15 militants were eliminated and another 20 were wounded.
