The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported a helicopter belonging to the Syrian regime fell after it was targeted in the airspace of Neirab - Qaminas in the northeastern countryside of Idlib.

According to the observatory, it was seen burning in the area, and no information has been received so far as to whether mercenary groups targeted the helicopter or the Turkish forces stationed there, while the fate of the helicopter’s crew remains unknown, amid information about mercenaries present in the area capturing them.

This comes in conjunction with a great tension between the regime forces, with the support of Russia on the one hand and Turkey on the other.

Today, the Syrian regime forces took control of the "M5" road, while the battles continue after the Russian-Turkish talks failed.
