Two separate videos uploaded to the internet this week show what is said to be a Russian-made Syrian military helicopter being hit by a surface-to-air missile.

According to the uploaders, the incident occurred in western Aleppo, in the north of the country.

Initially the helicopter appeared to have somehow survived the direct hit. However, the second clip reveals that the aircraft eventually crash landed following the attack.

Rebels, who control vast swathes of northern Syria, have made significant gains in past days, including the shooting down of regime aircraft with surface-to-air missiles for the first time.

The Washington Post reported on Thursday that Syrian rebels have obtained up to 40 shoulder-fired anti-aircraft missiles, some from Qatar, citing Western and Middle Eastern intelligence officials.
