EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the aftermath of a devastating explosion in Diyarbakir, Turkey's largest city in the predominantly Kurdish southeast. The image, taken from video footage on November 4,2016, shows thick smoke billowing into the sky as debris litters the urban landscape. The scene is a stark reminder of the armed conflict and violence that has plagued this region. The photograph showcases a cityscape marred by destruction and ruins. Buildings bear witness to the fierce battle that took place here, their architecture now reduced to rubble. There are no people visible in the frame; instead, nature seems to have taken over amidst an environment filled with fear and danger. The smoke rising ominously against a backdrop of gray clouds adds an eerie atmosphere to this powerful image. It serves as a haunting reminder of how quickly lives can be destroyed by acts of terrorism or warfare. Through its creative use of composition and lighting, Reuters TV captures both the immediate impact and long-lasting consequences of such explosive events. This print stands as a testament to both human resilience and our collective responsibility to strive for peace amid chaos.
