The Assad helicopter was downed above Atarib town in Aleppo western countryside.

On Tuesday, opposition fighters downed an Assad regime helicopter in al-Nayrab village near Saraqib in Idlib countryside. 

Russian warplanes bombed on Tuesday civilian homes in Atarib town, killing seven civilians and injuring others.

Assad-Russian warplanes have committed dozens of massacres in Idlib and Hama countryside since they launched their bombing campaign on the 30th of April, largely violating the de-escalation zone deal reached between Russia and Turkey.
