| Bibi Aisha, 18, was disfigured as retribution for fleeing her husband's house in Oruzgan province, in the center of Afghanistan. At the age of 12, Aisha and her younger sister had been given to the family of a Taliban fighter under a Pashtun tribal custom for settling disputes. When she reached puberty she was married to him, but she later returned to her parents' home, complaining of violent treatment by her in-laws. Men arrived there one night demanding that she be handed over to be punished for running away. Aisha was taken to a mountain clearing, where, at the orders of a Taliban commander, she was held down and had first her ears sliced off, then her nose. In local culture, a man who has been shamed by his wife is said to have lost his nose, and this is seen as punishment in return. Aisha was abandoned, but later rescued and taken to a shelter in Kabul run by the aid organization Women for Afghan Women, where she was given treatment and psychological help. After time in the refuge, she was taken to America to receive further counseling and reconstructive surgery. Photographer : Jodi Bieber |
Portraits:Stories – The Last Colony
|
| Minatu Lanabas Suidat, aged 25, in an area controlled by Polisario. The
Saharawi people of Western Sahara have been involved in a decades-long
dispute for independence, in land controlled by Morocco along the border
with Algeria. A former Spanish colony, Western Sahara is Africa's last
open file at the United Nations Decolonization Committee. Morocco
invaded the territory in 1975, forcing the Spanish to withdraw. Spain
divided the land between Morocco and Mauritania. A Saharawi rebel group,
the Polisario Front, which had formed earlier to fight the Spanish,
began a guerilla war against the new occupiers, with the backing of
Algeria, and forced the withdrawal of Mauritania in 1979. In the 1980s,
Morocco built a 2,700-kilometer-long sand barrier and planted it with
mines, dividing Western Sahara in two. Most Saharawi live in the inland
desert behind this barrier, or in refugee camps in Algeria. Photographer: Andrew McConnell |
People in the News: Singles – Kashmir Intifada
|
| The sister of Feroz Ahmad Malik wails as she clings to the bed carrying
his body, at his funeral in Palhalan, near the city of Srinagar, in
Indian-administered Kashmir. Feroz was one of two people killed when
Indian police and paramilitary fired at random in the town marketplace
on 6 September. The incident led to massive protests in the town, during
which a further two people were killed. Separatist unrest across the
region had lasted since July, resulting in more than 60 deaths. Kashmir,
which is over 60 percent Muslim, has been disputed by India and
Pakistan since the partition of the subcontinent in 1947. From 1989
onwards, a growing Muslim separatist movement against Indian control has
led to frequent clashes with government forces. Photographer : Altaf Qadri |
People in the News: Stories – Pakistan Floods
|
| Flood victims scramble for food rations in the downwash of a Pakistan
Army helicopter, during relief operations in Sindh, the province
worst-hit by the floods. Unusually heavy monsoon rains in July triggered
the worst flood in Pakistan's history. Beginning in the northern
province of Baluchistan, the flood spread throughout the Indus River
Basin to Punjab and Sindh in the south. At one point, around one fifth
of the country's total land mass was under water. Over 20 million people
were directly affected by the floods with up to 1,600 killed, as homes
were destroyed and crops and livestock were washed away. The country's
infrastructure was devastated as thousands of kilometers of roads and
railways were destroyed, in addition to some 7,000 schools and 400
health facilities. The Pakistan government, overwhelmed by the disaster,
was accused of being slow to respond. Months after the flood, many
Pakistanis were still suffering its effects. The loss of seed for the
next planting season and the vast areas left uninhabitable meant even
longer-lasting consequences. Photographer : Daniel Berehulak |
General News: Singles – Haiti Aftermath
|
| Port-au-Prince, Haiti A girl looks on as the Marché Hyppolite in
Port-au-Prince burns, six days after a 7.0 magnitude earthquake struck
Haiti. The market, popularly known as the Marché en Fer (Iron Market)
was a city landmark, dating back to 1891. The devastation caused by the
earthquake appeared to paralyze authorities, leading to accusations of
indecision and delay when it came to clean-up operations. But the
enormity of the task that faced them, together with an infrastructure
already weakened by decades of violent political instability and
economic deprivation, were also to blame. Port-au-Prince presented
further difficulties, as its hilly terrain and narrow streets, many of
which became blocked by makeshift shelters, hindered access for heavy
rubble-removing machinery. Aid agencies said that it could be years
before reconstruction work was complete. The Marché en Fer was one of
the first buildings in the capital to be restored, thanks largely to an €
8.8 million cash injection by a private donor. A year after the
earthquake struck Haiti, just 5 percent of the resultant rubble had been
removed from Port-au-Prince, but the Iron Market had re-opened for
business with some 900 vendors. Photographer : Riccardo Venturi |

Arts and Entertainment: Stories – At a Tent Theater Near You
|
| Mekhar, Maharashtra, India. A patron of a traveling cinema watches a film at a night screening. Nomadic cinemas travel to remote villages in India, far from fixed-site theaters. Films are shown in large tents, often using makeshift equipment, with the audience seated on the ground. Although India is home to the most prolific movie industry in the world, producing around 800 films a year, it has one of the lowest ratios of screens to population – 13 screens per million people. The traveling cinemas show mixed fare, including regional language films, Bollywood blockbusters and Hollywood movies, but they are facing a fight for survival as DVDs become more easily accessible and cable networks penetrate further into the country.
