EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful print captured by Ahmed Zakot, the intensity of conflict and its aftermath is vividly portrayed. The image showcases a moment where members of Hamas security forces and a United Nations sapper unit come together to neutralize an unexploded ordnance left behind from Israel's offensive the previous year. The photograph captures the essence of danger and resilience as explosions illuminate the landscape in Khan Younis, located in the southern Gaza Strip. Amidst smoke and debris, these brave individuals work tirelessly to ensure safety for their community. This image serves as a stark reminder of the ongoing armed conflict that has plagued this region for years. It highlights both the destructive power of explosives used during bombings and also sheds light on efforts made by local authorities with international support to clear landmines and protect civilians. The composition cleverly incorporates elements such as nature, weather conditions, and copy space to emphasize the magnitude of destruction caused by explosive devices. With no people visible in the frame, it symbolizes not only physical devastation but also represents how conflicts can displace communities. Ahmed Zakot's photograph encapsulates both tragedy and hope within one frame—a testament to human determination amidst adversity. It stands as a poignant visual representation of political unrest while reminding us that even amid chaos, there are those who strive for peace.
