		</div><p>Turkey has taken delivery of the body of a Russian pilot who was killed after Turkish F-16s shot down a Russian war plane, the country’s prime minister says.</p>
<p>Ahmet Davutoglu says the pilot’s body was taken to the border province of Hatay “through Turkey’s initiatives” early on Sunday and will be flown back to Russia.</p>
<p>He said the Orthodox church in Hatay performed religious rites for the pilot.</p>
<p>Turkey shot down the plane on Tuesday after it entered its airspace from Syria, ignoring several warnings.</p>
<p>The two pilots parachuted out of the plane but were shot at by Syrian rebels on the ground. One of the pilots, Lt Col Oleg Peshkov, died.</p>
<p>Turkey’s action drew strong reaction from Moscow. Russian president Vladimir Putin on Saturday called for sanctions against Turkey.</p>
