See article... maybe the french did participate with precision missiles, but seem pretty sure as are the Russians that they did not down the IL-20.
Important thing with the 'coalition strikes' is they are very targeted and now are only given with limited forewarning, as previously when they gave Russia a days' warning, Iran somehow managed to move all their assets out of harms way. Basically they are giving them enough time to get the troops/staff out. Hence because they have little warning... SAM operators panicking... But if Russia had not been warning Al Quds.... they would still be getting a day plus.
where to draw the line?
