The evacuation of White Helmets -- an all-volunteer rescue organization -- from southwestern Syria could happen very quickly, CBS News national security correspondent David Martin reports, citing a U.S. official. 

This news comes as Syrian regime continues violent assaults on the southern region of Syria, an area formerly protected by the Trump administration. The White Helmets face the danger of assassination by the regime. After years of rescue operations in rebel-held territory during a seven-year war that has cost hundreds of thousands of lives, the White Helmets now need rescuing themselves. Formally known as the Syrian Civil Defense group, the White Helmets expect to be marked as resistance targets and slaughtered by Assad's forces, which are backed by Iranian and Russian firepower.
