Helicopter rescues man stranded atop car amid floods in Syria

A Syrian military helicopter rescued a stranded driver from his vehicle's roof after fast-moving floodwaters surrounded it. Heavy rainfall triggered flash floods across the provinces of Raqqa, Deir ez-Zor and Aleppo on October 29. Emergency teams conducted over 300 operations, rescuing dozens from vehicles, evacuating around 375 families from camps and addressing damage to roads and bridges.
