Israeli rocket is fired into the northern Gaza Strip

An Israeli rocket is fired into the northern Gaza Strip July 17, 2014. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday instructed the military to begin a ground offensive in Gaza, an official statement from his office said. The Israeli military says Gaza militants have fired more than 1, 300 rockets into Israel. Palestinian health officials say 233 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli air and naval strikes. One Israeli civilian has been killed by fire from Gaza. REUTERS/Amir Cohen (ISRAEL - Tags: POLITICS CIVIL UNREST MILITARY CONFLICT TPX IMAGES OF THE DAY)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful photo captures the intensity and devastation of the conflict between Israel and Gaza in 2014. In the midst of a dark night, an Israeli rocket is seen piercing through the sky as it is fired into the northern Gaza Strip. The image symbolizes both the aggression and desperation that characterized this period of armed conflict. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's decision to initiate a ground offensive in Gaza further escalates tensions, as indicated by his official statement. The backdrop of urban city lights adds to the dramatic effect, emphasizing how civilian lives are affected by these military actions. The photograph also highlights the asymmetry of power in this conflict. While Palestinian health officials report a significant loss of life on their side due to Israeli air and naval strikes, only one Israeli civilian has been killed by fire from Gaza militants. This disparity underscores not only the physical destruction but also raises questions about proportionality and human rights concerns. Amir Cohen's skillful composition includes elements such as buildings, vapour trails, and creative use of lighting that enhance its visual impact. With no people present in this frame, it allows viewers to focus solely on the destructive force unleashed during this moment. This print serves as a reminder of past conflicts while urging us to seek peaceful resolutions for ongoing disputes around the world today.
