Russian warplanes destroy White Helmets centre: Idlib


(Zaman Al Wasl)- A member of the White Helmets rescuing group was killed and 5 others injuries by a striking their centre in Moarat al-Noman in the countryside of Idlib this Thursday afternoon. 

The civil defense in Idlib confirmed that some injured are in critical condition, and the centre has become out of service. 
Activists reported that air strikes have resulted in injuring dozens of civilians including women and children. 
A day before, the Syrian regime warplane hit he centre of civil defense in the town of Kafranbel, injured three members and destroyed an ambulance.
The Syrian and Russian warplanes intentionally and repeatedly target medical and civil defense centres all over the liberated areas in the country, but in Idlib in particular. 

The French President Francois Hollande had last Wednesday welcomed a delegation of the Syrian  Civil Defense “White helmets” in Elysee Palace. 
Moreover, the delegation was last Tuesday welcomed like “heroes” by the Prime Minister Manuel Valls and a group of French parliament members in the headquarter of the National French Association. 

The White Helmets motto is taken from the Quran: 'to save a life is to save all of humanity', in a conflict where many have chosen fighting, but the White Helmets have chosen to save lives of injured. 

Their courage has inspired people all over the world to support them in nomination to the Nobel Peace Prize for 2016.
Civil Defense is composed of almost 3000 volunteers. They impartially save injured lives regardless of their religion or background. However they have paid heavy price, as 141 members them were killed since March 2013. 

They have save lives of almost 62 thousand lives of civilians injured by Syrian and Russian shelling and bombing.
