Dozens of Jisr al-Shughur children participated in a bike race on December 5 hosted by the White Helmets and NuDay Syria, local news reported.

Trophies were awarded to the fastest cyclists, while all the children were gifted toys at the end of the race, Wael Ibrahim, the manager of NuDay Syria’s office in Jisr al-Shughur said.
