Footage of SyAAF Mi-25 Crash Site
Two days back, a VIDEO was published showing the wreckage of a SyAAF helicopter said to be shot down on 14th July 2016 near Al-Baytariyeh town which is located in the eastern rural of Damascus.
I cannot tell this is a newly shot down helicopter at the above mentioned date because first of all it is a Mi-25 helicopter, so it might be that one shot down on 1st July 2016 and just recently some public discovered the crash site.
Secondly, no footage was published for the interception nor for fighters inspecting the wreckage taking into account that a MANPAD hit will result in bringing down an aircraft no further than 5km from the launch site, so finding and covering the crash site is a piece of cake after all.
Last, I didn't find any pro-regime page/individual talking or mentioning a "martyr" pilot/crew within the last few days but only that pilot of the MiG-21 crashed few days back in Deir EzZour.
Update: Thanks for heads up from Gerard & Milos (ACIG). The rotar blades belong for sure for a Mi-8/17.
Then, I'm not sure of the possibility of mounting such blades to Mi-25 under any circumstances, but providing the boom belongs with no doubts to a Mi-25 this puts us in front of a possibility that the crashed helicopter is truly a Mi-8/17 was transferring components of Mi-25 -boom among them- from an airbase to another.
Talking about a Hind needs maintenance and replacement of specific parts, this reminds me of the incident of intercepting a SyAAF helicopter by JAI SA-8 (Osa) over Eastern Ghouta on 27th June 2016 which forced the hit Mi-25 -as confirmed by my source- to perform an emergency landing at an airport -should be Damascus IAP.

SyAAF Mi-25 Shot Down (2016-07-01)
It's simply incredible how SyAAF is bleeding units and pilots! Today and just few hours after the crash of Su-22M-3 in Qalamoon mounts, a SyAAF Mi-25 operating from Blai AB and piloted by General Muhammad Badr Mahmoud "اللواء محمد بدر محمود" and Captain Zein Nayef Khalloof "النقيب زين نايف خلوف" has been shot down by opposition MANPAD in Jurud Al-Qalamoun resulting in the death of both pilots.
Apparently, a third crew (technician) Col. Adnan Munir Al-Salem was onboard has died as well.

SyAAF Helicopters Deployed to Sfireh
Trying to geo-locate some SyAAF helicopters appeared in many photos over FB SyAA personnel profiles said to be near Aleppo and some clearly mentioned Sfireh where the Military Works is located...it's true, they are in Sfireh and inside that facility; and it's clear SyAAF arranged to pave the area highlighted in Blue to receive more helicopters in this spot.
So far, Mi-17s -among them the VIP transport in White/Blue livery- appeared there, that in addition to some Mi-25s such as the ones serialed 2800 and 2856.
Let's await GE to update its imagery there to see the new tarmac.
