EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful image captured by Amir Cohen, Israeli soldiers stand vigilantly next to a hole in the ground that they suspect is connected to an underground tunnel. The photograph was taken outside the Gaza Strip on August 10,2014, during a period of intense conflict and civil unrest. The soldiers, dressed in their military uniforms and armed with weapons, cast long shadows against the backdrop of an unrecognizable exterior. Their presence signifies the ongoing armed conflict and highlights the constant state of alertness required in such volatile situations. The composition cleverly focuses on their lower body parts - feet clad in sturdy boots standing firmly on a dirt road. This creative use of framing draws attention to their role as protectors and defenders while emphasizing their connection to the land they are guarding. The group's collective stance suggests determination and readiness as they carefully inspect what lies beneath. With bodies positioned close together, it becomes evident that these soldiers rely heavily on teamwork amidst uncertain circumstances. This thought-provoking image serves as a reminder of the complex realities faced by those involved in conflicts around the world. It captures both physical elements like soil-filled holes but also symbolic ones such as hope for peace through negotiations represented by Israel's acceptance of a new ceasefire proposed by Egyptian mediators.
