EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of intense conflict and tension in the Middle East. Rockets launched from the Gaza Strip towards Israel are seen as streaks of light, contrasting against the dark night sky. On the left side of the image, we witness the powerful response from Israel's Iron Dome anti-missile system, firing to intercept these incoming threats. Taken with a long exposure technique, this photograph beautifully conveys both movement and stillness simultaneously. The trails left behind by rockets create an eerie vapour trail effect that adds to the intensity of the scene. The horizon line serves as a stark reminder of how close these two regions are geographically but remain worlds apart politically. The timing is significant as well - just before a five-day ceasefire was set to expire in August 2014, tensions escalated once again between Palestine and Israel. Unfortunately, this ceasefire collapsed shortly after this photo was taken when Palestinian militants fired rockets into Israel, triggering Israeli air strikes that resulted in casualties. Amidst all this destruction and violence depicted in this image lies an underlying message about humanity's struggle for peace amidst ongoing conflicts. It serves as a somber reminder of how fragile ceasefires can be and highlights the urgent need for dialogue and diplomacy to find lasting solutions to such complex issues plaguing our world today.
