The last batch of Russian tourists returned home from Turkey, said the Federation of Russian travel agencies.

As many as 300 tourists returned home on Friday and Saturday and there are no more Russian tourists in Turkey, he added.

Last week, the Russian Foreign Ministry urged nationals vacationing in Turkey to return home after tensions with Ankara soared over the downing of a Russian warplane.

Some 10,000 Russian tourists have been in Turkey, a popular visa-free holiday destination for middle-class Russians, ahead of the travel advisory.

Ankara shot down a Russian jet in Syria on November 24, with the Kremlin insisting the aircraft did not enter Turkish airspace.

The downing of the jet led to the deaths of one of its two pilots and that of a soldier who took part in a failed rescue operation.
