Short clip of a low level flying Su-24 trailing smoke.
Even though the user who uploaded the video to Youtube titled the footage “Mig-23 Low Pass Scream – Syria”, the aircraft you can see in the footage below is clearly a Su-24 Fencer.
The aircraft can be seen overflying the cameraman at very low altitude, trailing white smoke: provided it was really shot in Syria, the video may show a Syrian Arab Air Force Fencer hit by ground fire (or dumping fuel) trying to return to its homebase.
