BEIRUT, Shawwal 27, 1437, August 01, 2016, SPA -- A Russian military helicopter carrying five people was shot down in the north of Syria's rebel-held Idlib province on Monday, the Russian defence ministry said, according to Reuters. Images shared on social media purportedly showed a dead body stripped of his clothes and Russian identity documents taken from the crashed helicopter. The defence ministry said it was an Mi-8 military transport helicopter which had been shot down after delivering humanitarian aid to the city of Aleppo as it made its way back to Russia's main air base in the western province of Latakia. --SPA 14:21 LOCAL TIME 11:21 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
