The White Helmets are coordinating their activities with terrorists, seeking to stage new chemical weapons incidents in Syria, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Friday.


She cited the data that the Syrian government provides to the UN on a regular basis, adding that “their goal clearly is to undermine the political process.”


The White Helmets, who call themselves a humanitarian organization, currently are active near Idlib, cooperating with the Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, formerly known as Jabhat al-Nusra terrorist group, TASS quoted the spokeswoman as saying.


The United States’ decision to allocate $4.5 million to support the White Helmets is an example of Washington’s double standard in the war on terror, Zakharova said.
