EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful image captures the devastating impact of armed conflict in Syria. In the village of Jubata Al Khashab, held by Syrian rebel groups fighting against President Bashar al-Assad, smoke billows into the sky from explosions during intense fighting. The photograph was taken from the Israeli side of the border fence between Syria and the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights on September 11,2016. The composition is striking as it showcases a view from above, revealing a vast expanse of damaged terrain and an ominous cloud of smoke rising into the air. The contrast between the dark smoke and the clear blue sky creates a sense of tension and danger. The destruction caused by bombings is evident in this image, with buildings reduced to rubble and fields left nonagricultural. It serves as a stark reminder of how armed conflicts can ravage not only human lives but also entire landscapes. Despite its somber subject matter, there is an element of creativity in Baz Ratner's use of aerial photography to capture this scene. By providing us with this unique perspective, he allows viewers to comprehend both the scale and environmental impact of such violence. In summary, this print encapsulates both tragedy and resilience amidst armed conflict – highlighting nature's ability to endure even in destructive circumstances.
