Activists circulated video clips on social media of Russian helicopters flying over the areas of Aleppo countryside under the control of the Syrian National Army.

The videos showed two Russian helicopters flying at a very low altitude over the city of Jarablus in the eastern countryside of Aleppo, heading to the city of Ayn al-Arab, which is under the control of the Syrian Democratic Forces.

The sources indicated that the helicopters' flight coincided with the conduct of a Russian-Turkish patrol on the international road "M4" near the city of Ayn al-Arab in the eastern countryside of Aleppo.

It is noteworthy that this is the first time since the beginning of the current year 2021 that Russian helicopters fly over the areas under the control of the National Army
