EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful print captured by Hazir Reka, we witness the tense atmosphere that engulfed Kosovo's capital, Pristina, on January 9,2016. Special police forces stand resolute in the center of the city after deploying tear gas against protesters. The image encapsulates a moment of intense confrontation between demonstrators and law enforcement. The young Balkan country was embroiled in violence as citizens expressed their discontent over an accord with its former ruler Serbia. Running battles erupted on the streets, culminating in a brief fire at government headquarters. Against a backdrop of indistinct buildings and street lamps piercing through foggy air, these special police forces become emblematic figures representing authority amidst chaos. Reka's composition skillfully captures not only the physical clash but also conveys a sense of unease and uncertainty hanging heavy in the environment. The cloudy sky adds to this somber ambiance while smoke from tear gas lingers ominously overhead. This photograph serves as a stark reminder of how political tensions can escalate into violent clashes within urban cities. It stands as both documentation and creative use of imagery to shed light on moments when society is divided and passions run high. Although absent from this frame are any individuals or wildlife, their presence is felt through the aftermath left behind – shattered peace and frayed unity.
