Terrorists, “White Helmets” filming fake videos of strikes to accuse the Syrian Army and Russian forces of attacking civilians  

Deputy Chief of the Russian Coordination Center in Syria Oleg Yegorov on Sunday said that the terrorist organizations in cooperation with the so-called “White Helmet” terror group are filming fake videos about alleged airstrikes on civilians in Syria’s Idlib governorate to later accuse the Syrian Arab Army and the Russian forces of conducting these strikes.

“Reports received by the Russian Coordination Center say that terrorists of the Jabhat al-Nusra terror organization jointly with the pseudo-humanitarian organization White Helmets are filming fake videos in the Qattan area in Idlib governorate to later accuse the Russian air forces and the Syrian Army of targeting civilians and civil infrastructure,” Yegorov said, according to Tass.

During the past years, the Russian Ministry of Defense uncovered a number of fabrications and fake videos as well as plans to stage chemical attacks by the terrorists, mainly from Jabhat Al-Nusra, on several areas in Syria in order to accuse the Syrian army. These plans were prepared in coordination with the so-called “White Helmets” and backed by western intelligence bodies.

The “White Helmets” organization was established in Turkey in 2013 with British and US funding. It has close link to the terrorist organizations in Syria, particularly the blacklisted Jabhat Al-Nusra. This fact was repeatedly exposed by the Russian Defense Ministry and confirmed by tens of documents found by the Syria Arab Army in the areas liberated from terrorism.
