Syrian rebels say, in video obtained by Reuters, that they have brought down a fighter jet near the town of Atarib in Idlib on Saturday (September 22).
The video shows footage of rebels standing in back of trucks and shooting at war planes.
In the video, rebels also appear to have surrounded a military building near the town of Awrem, which is said to be loyal to the Syrian regime.
Vastly outgunned, rebels say they need surface-to-air missiles to take down planes and helicopters used by the Syrian military to bombard opposition strongholds.
