An investigation by Channel 4 News has obtained evidence of possible war crimes in Syria.

These airstrikes appear to deliberately target White Helmet rescuers. #InsideIdlib
Footage caught on multiple cameras allegedly shows a so-called 'double-tap' operation in Idlib province - which Syrian and Russian forces have long been accused of.

Evidence of this kind has rarely been seen before. A complete incident caught on multiple cameras. #InsideIdlib
During the incident, members of the White Helmets rescue group are seen arriving at the scene of a recent bombing to search for survivors.

But when they get to the scene, aircraft return for a follow-up airstrike as rescue attempts continue. #InsideIdlib
