Know anything definite about that clip of a plane shot down, supposedly in Libya today? Saw that clip of?

Question

a flaming fighter jet crashing to earth on three different news channels - but none gave any details of whose plane it was, or even where they got the video from.

(By the look of it, I'm 99.9% sure it was not American or British.)  Design looked French or Russian.  Pretty sure the Libyans have French and Russian planes.  The French of course have French planes.  

Reports clearly stated the French flew planes against ground targets.  There was no statement of losses, and a modern state like France would announce losses like that when they occurred.  But no clear statement by any news organization of whether the French had announce the safe return of all of their planes.

Sorry for the overlong question, but I'm a little frustrated at these news organizations not clearly stating what they know or don't know, or what inquiries they have made that have been unanswered.  Any info you have in any of this would be appreciated.

On al Jazeera they said it was a MIG operated by the rebels, shot down by mistake by their own side.
I didn't know the rebels had MIGs.
But maybe that wasn't the only plane shot down.  There may have been a Qaddafi plane shot down too.
Reports are still a little unclear.  The Libyan government claims to have shot down a French plane, but France denies it.

i did not watch it, yet i'm able to think of what's in there. i be conscious of it relatively is not perfect in any respect, i don't help the way specific squaddies manage Palestinians/Arabs. you're able to desire to undergo in recommendations that it relatively is relatively not the completed IDF. it relatively is like announcing "Do you think of this Palestinian suicide bomber's habit became perfect?" and then have human beings answer "No way all Palestinians are terrorists!"... might you like that? it relatively is what you're doing right here, and what the solutions are announcing right here. i'm not announcing that I approve of ways the warriors dealt with the persons - on no account. i'm only announcing you're able to desire to undergo in recommendations it relatively is not the completed IDF it quite is that way, only as not all Palestinians are suicide bombers.
