In a breathtaking display of ingenuity, an overloaded truck is seen bravely navigating through the rugged terrain near Rosso, carrying bales upon bales of rice stalks. The image speaks volumes about the resilience and unwavering spirit of these hardworking individuals. The photograph was taken on January 30,2008, as this remarkable vehicle embarked on its arduous journey towards the capital city Nouakchott.
