The White Helmets Page #2

---

Our job depends on speed

and accuracy

to be able to save lives

and extract victims

from under the rubble.

Is anybody here from Hayyan?

Two White Helmets

were killed from there.

Guys, Marwan

and Ahmad Daboul were killed.

And their brother is injured.

The three are all White Helmets

from Hayyan.

- Today?

- Yesterday.

All White Helmets are targeted.

We're all targets.

We were training on the ropes

when they sent us the news.

Read the opening chapter

of the Qu'ran for their souls.

May God accept them.

Everyone knows the truth about Syria,

but no one's been able to stop

the killing and fighting...

or stop the bloodshed and the massacres

that are being committed.

Early reports suggest

15 people have been killed so far.

Is the area populated?

A wedding hall was completely destroyed

and five or six buildings.

Abu Omar wants to talk to you

to check on his brother and son.

They work in that area.

Okay.

Hello.

Hello.

I can't get hold of my brother or my son.

I'm sorry to be bothering you,

but please can you go and check on them

and then update me?

Just go to my brother's, okay?

And he will find my son.

This must be the strongest car bomb

to ever hit Aleppo.

I didn't know who was speaking.

Who?

Listen to it.

My son.

This is my son.

In my whole life, I've never seen

so much destruction.

This is my son.

Yeah, thank God.

But, brother,

what's really the difference

between my son

and another person's?

Aren't they all innocent?

What's their sin, whoever it is?

ISIS on the ground

and the Russian planes above.

Six buildings...

I feel cold.

There is no war here.

No devastation.

No destruction.

Just by crossing a border,

it's so strange

how the situation can change.

If this was in Syria,

it would have been dropping

cluster bombs from that height.

We see so many cluster bombs.

Really?

It would not drop barrel bombs,

because they want to cause more harm.

There is a sound...

We can now differentiate between the sound

of military and civilian aircraft.

Take shelter, hero!

Where would I take shelter

in this building?

If a barrel bomb fell here,

it would destroy the whole building!

My son is almost two years old.

He knows all about the war planes.

When planes fly over

and there's an air strike...

my son jumps up on my lap and says,

"Daddy, a bomb."

Now you will learn

how you can give

a practical lesson to the trainees

about putting out fires.

What is the most important thing?

Safety.

The suffering of civilians

has entered a new chapter

with Russia's air campaign.

There are record levels of shelling,

especially over Aleppo.

I am telling you,

about 200 air raids a day,
