Later in the day, the White Helmets confirmed his death and extended their condolences to his relatives and hailed his humanitarian efforts via their Twitter account. 

Hailed as fearless rescue workers by the Western media, the White Helmets have been accused of associating with Al-Qaeda and other terrorist groups inside Syria. Photographs and videos show members of the ‘civil defense’ organization posing with jihadists. They’ve also been accused of staging chemical attacks, used as justification by Western nations to carry out strikes against the Syrian military and its allies. 

 According to the Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman, Le Mesurier was a former MI-6 intelligence officer.

He was a dead soul long before this news, but… let’s wait for the proof of his death before we can say it is a good news.

Small persons don't matter, the game is over and big criminals get rid of those who might implicate them.

Small Daddy gone after the Big Daddy (Baghdadi),that's what happens when the masters of the game decide to end it, they get rid of the small players. The White Helmets terrorists and their supporters should realize the meaning of this and go to their mommy Erdogan if they still can and if mommy will accept them.

Should serve as an example to all the other Imperial servants, @arabisouri

Exactly, but sadly they'll never learn. See Lebanon and Iraq now and both of them lived and witnessed and suffered from the US waged war of terror on Syria, yet they're following exactly the same steps, step by step like how it started in Syria.
