EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: This powerful print captures a pivotal moment in history - the Turkish invasion of Cyprus in 1974. The image showcases the aftermath of a successful Greek coup, which resulted in the overthrow of President Makarios and triggered Turkey's military intervention on the Mediterranean holiday isle. Taken on July 22nd, 1974, near Nicosia, this photograph freezes time as Turkish paratroops descend from the skies during their daring landing operation. The intensity and urgency radiate from their determined faces as they touch down onto Cypriot soil. The conflict that unfolded during this period was marked by tension and violence, with both sides vying for control over the island. This image serves as a reminder of the immense human cost and devastation caused by war. Photographer Peter Stone skillfully captures not only the military aspect but also conveys an emotional narrative through his lens. His composition highlights both individual soldiers and their collective mission to secure strategic positions across Cyprus. As we reflect upon this historical event captured within these four corners, let us remember those who were affected by this conflict and hope for lasting peace in Cyprus.
