(CNN) Every so often, a photograph cuts through the grim cacophony of the war in Syria and pierces viewers' hearts. Photographer and activist Abd Alkader Habak was there working and was briefly knocked out by the blast. An image taken by another photographer, Muhammad Alrageb, shows Habak dashing towards an ambulance, the child and his camera in his arms. Habak said he left the injured boy, who must have been only 6 or 7, at the ambulance. After rescuing one boy, Habak is overcome with grief beside the body of another victim.
