EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the resilience and strength of Pakistan's Hazara community amidst ongoing fear and defiance. Standing proudly on a hilltop in Mariabad, Quetta, the houses belonging to the ethnic Hazaras serve as a symbol of their unwavering spirit. Against a backdrop of clear blue skies, these traditional architectural marvels stand tall, showcasing the unique landscape they call home. In this image by Akhtar Soomro for Reuters Images' "The Wider Image: Under Siege" we witness an absence of people, allowing us to focus solely on the striking beauty and significance of these structures. The creative use of copy space emphasizes their isolation while also highlighting their importance within society. This photograph serves as a reminder that despite being part of a minority group facing immense challenges and discrimination, the Hazara community refuses to be silenced or marginalized. Their homes represent not only shelter but also symbols of resistance against adversity. As we delve deeper into this visual narrative through Reuters' search term "HAZARA MINORITY" we gain insight into the struggles faced by this resilient community. Through Akhtar Soomro's lens, we are invited to appreciate both the physical beauty and emotional fortitude embodied by these houses perched atop Mariabad's hills.
