Sad event...
The White Helmets volunteers frequently have been targets of Syrian government attacks, often as the volunteers are working to rescue fellow Syrian civilians trapped and injured by earlier military strikes.
Refugees International condemns the apparent targeting of the White Helmets, humanitarian actors who work to aid Syrian civilians regardless of religious or political affiliation. We call on the U.S. and international community to place pressure on Syria and Russia to end the targeting of Syrian civilians and in particular immediately cease the targeted attacks on the White Helmets.

This is so sad these white helmets risk their lives to rescue people and they don't carry weapons since they are non-combatants. So very sad!

I've always admired them for their selfless service to humanity & to their country (but not that dictator Assad or his barrel bombs of course)
