EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful image captured by photographer Ammar Awad, a Palestinian protester hurls stones towards Israeli troops while reacting to tear gas during clashes following a protest in solidarity with Palestinian prisoners held by Israel. The photograph was taken in the West Bank town of Bethlehem on April 17,2017. The intensity and determination of the protester are palpable as he confronts the heavily armed troops behind a fence. His face is partially covered by a gas mask, shielding him from the effects of tear gas that fills the air around him. The composition of the photo highlights his solitary figure against a backdrop of shrubs and nature, symbolizing both resilience and defiance. This image captures not only an individual's struggle but also represents a larger conflict between two nations. It serves as a reminder of ongoing tensions in the region and sheds light on the plight faced by Palestinians living under occupation. Ammar Awad's skillful capture freezes this moment in time, showcasing both creativity and journalistic integrity. Through his lens, we witness one man's act of resistance amidst chaos – throwing stones against an oppressive force. This photograph encapsulates raw emotion, illustrating how even amidst adversity, people find ways to express their grievances and fight for justice.
