EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the resilience of life amidst the turmoil of war, as a native village nestled on a hill near Gaza stands defiant against the backdrop of the First World War. Circa 1917, during the Great War in the Middle East, the village remains a testament to the tenacity of its inhabitants. The foreground is dominated by cacti, their spiky silhouettes contrasting against the rolling hills and the blue sky above. These hardy plants, with their deep roots and ability to store water, have long been a vital source of sustenance for the people of this region. The village itself, with its simple houses and buildings, clings to the hillside, seemingly untouched by the conflict raging beyond its borders. Yet, the signs of war are not entirely absent - the occasional gun emplacement or military equipment can be seen in the distance, serving as stark reminders of the ongoing conflict. Despite the challenges, the village continues to thrive, its people relying on the land and its resources to survive. This photograph, taken during a time of great upheaval and change, offers a glimpse into the daily lives of those living in this part of Palestine during the First World War. It serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring strength and resilience of communities, even in the face of adversity.
