Geography
Location Latakia, Syria

Turkmen Mountain (Arabic transliteration: Jebel/Jabal Turkman), is a mountain in the north of Latakia region of Syria, in the area called Bayırbucak locally in Turkish, neighboring the Turkish border. The mountain range runs along the eastern length of Latakia Governorate.[1] The area is mostly inhabited by Syrian Turkmen people and has seen military activity by the SAA and Russian air strikes in late 2015.[2][3][4][5][6] Turkish sources say close to 300,000 Turkmens have been displaced since the start of the Syrian civil war.[7]

Two Turkish F-16s shot down one of two Russian Su-24 fighter jets in Syria on 24 November 2015. Both pilots ejected safely, however one pilot was killed by Turkmen forces.[8][9]
