Syria rebel rescuers urge help after child dies of quake injuries
Idlib, Syria (AFP) Feb 24, 2023
White Helmets rescuers in rebel-held northwest Syria called on international help Friday to save people with quake-related crush injuries after a boy they rescued died from the condition. The group had spearheaded rescue efforts in rebel-held areas with virtually no outside help after a 7.8-magnitude quake that struck war-torn Syria and Turkey on February 6 killed more than 46,000 people.
