Anas al-Basha is a Syrian. He is 24 years old. He worked as a clown to bring comfort to children in a rebel-held part of Aleppo. About 250,000 people are living there,and there are about 100,000 children. There are no functioning hospitals left, and official food stocks are exhausted. However, he refused to leave Aleppo and decided to stay there to continue his work as a volunteer, to help the civilians and give gifts for the children in the streets to bring hope for them.
But, Mr.Basha died in an air strike on Tuesday in the Mashhad neighborhood.
