EDITORS COMMENTS
In the aftermath of intense battles in western Mosul, Iraq, a striking image captures the creative use of a damaged mannequin by members of the Iraqi Federal Police. This peculiar sight showcases their resourcefulness and determination to outsmart Islamic State snipers. The mannequin, strategically placed as a distraction target, stands amidst debris and destruction with an oddly serene demeanor. The headscarf-clad mannequin casts a shadow on the exterior wall of a partially destroyed building, adding an eerie touch to the scene. With its cloth-covered body and rear view perspective, it appears almost lifelike from afar. Nature's resilience is evident as a lone tree defiantly grows nearby despite the surrounding chaos. This photograph by Muhammad Hamed encapsulates both the devastating impact of conflict and humanity's ability to adapt under extreme circumstances. It serves as a powerful reminder that even in times of great adversity, ingenuity can prevail over destruction
