A military helicopter has been shot down in Syria. The helicopter was shot down near the town of Urum al-Kubra in the western countryside of Aleppo.
The helicopter was hit by a missile. The National Liberation Front rebel group claimed responsibility of the attack.
Since December, Syrian Government forces have been pressing ahead with a fierce assault on Idlib, the last rebel bastion in the country’s northwest. The offensive has triggered the largest wave of displacement in the nine-year war, with more than eight lakh people fleeing towards the Turkish border.
