Syria conflit;Russia violation
Russia's violation of Turkish airspace over the weekend "does not look like an accident", Nato has said.
Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said Russia had not provided "any real explanation" of the violation, which had "lasted for a long time."
Russia says a violation on Saturday lasted a few seconds and was due to poor weather. It says it is looking into claims of a second violation.
Russia's latest strikes in Syria included targeting sites in Palmyra.
The strikes hit vehicles and weapons depots in and around the city, which is renowned for its ancient ruins and held by Islamic State militants, Syrian state TV reported on Tuesday.
Russia began its air campaign in Syria last Wednesday.
It says it is targeting Islamic State and other Islamists, but Nato and allied states have expressed concern that Russia is concentrating its attacks on other groups opposed to President Bashar al-Assad, some of them backed by the West.
