People in the historical center Sur in Diyarbakir, Turkey, fled their houses during clashes between Turkish police and Kurdish militants, in 2015-2016. Many returned to find their houses looted. The family of Halide (far left), Gulistan (in the middle), and Kader (far right), a family of 14, left Sur for 2 months in winter 2016. Only a young man remained to take care of the pigeons and dogs. People were looting the neighbourhoods at the time, and someone stole a Kalashnikov gun from their house. © Anush Babajanyan / VII.

Famine. Children looking through the gates of a feeding centre. In 1991 President Barre was overthrown by opposing clans, but they failed to agree on a replacement and plunged the country into lawlessness and clan warfare. In December 1992 US Marines landed near Mogadishu ahead of a UN peacekeeping force sent to restore order and safeguard relief supplies. The US forces withdrew in 1993 following the debacle of the infamous Black Hawk Down battle. © Paul Lowe / VII.

Iraqi military operations in Mosul between 7/11/2016 to 20/12/2016 with the Iraqi ERD forces from southern Mosul in (Hammam Alalil) town and (Gogjali) town East of Mosul. The pictures show the daily life of the ERD fighters on the front lines of the battle, efforts to liberate the areas and villages outside of Mosul, people displaced from Mosul, and night raids. During this period the ERD carried out humanitarian violations including rape, torture, and killing of Iraqi civilians. © Ali Arkady / VII.

Anjelika Ayaryan, 10, stands under a tree as her friend Tatevik picks berries in Shushi, Nagorno-Karabakh, on June 3, 2017. Anjelika is one of the seven Ayaryan children. She lives and studies in Shushi together with her two sisters. Armenians call this town Shushi while Azerbaijanis call it Shusha, the town came under Azerbaijan's control by the end of the Nagorno-Karabakh war in Fall 2020. There has been a conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh in the South Caucasus, for decades, with fighting between Armenian and Azerbaijani forces. In 1994, after six years of war, a ceasefire was concluded, but violence has continued along the contact line between the unrecognized republic of Nagorno-Karabakh, and Azerbaijan, breaking out into a 45-day war in Fall 2020. © Anush Babajanyan / VII.

Madly in adolescent-love at the time, and despite a cultivated bravado, I’d been pretty battered by the bullying from previous years and couldn’t tell her how much I cared for fear of more rejection, so hid behind a lens instead and we became friends. Strange as it may seem by today’s standards, Lancing College was rare at the time since it had broken a centuries old tradition of segregated, privileged, private education and introduced the opposite sex into the sixth form of a boys’ public school. The girls had their own purpose built house, Manor, set well away from the male domains that constituted the majority of the school, but happily close to the darkroom. Photographing the girls there was to become my first published story with Jane gracing my first cover. I’m glad to say, that after all this time and despite my 17-year-old tongue being glued to the roof of my mouth then, we are still friends. With a wry smile, she reminded me of late that throughout our shared school days, I couldn’t see for looking despite being constantly glued to a camera. © Jocelyn Bain Hogg / VII.

In the small Peruvian Amazon village of Pebas in August 2016, native Bora shaman Aladino conducts a ceremonial burning of dried "cetico" leaves deep in the jungle. The ashes, combined with coca powder, provide an essential flavor for a key element of Bora tradition. Aladino believes the act in the jungle allows observation by ancient spirits who guide shamans like himself to achieve the perfect blend. For authentic indigenous shamans, coca represents their primary source of power, connecting them to ancestral knowledge and abilities. © Leonardo Carrato / VII.

After the 1997 collapse of Albania's economy, widespread looting and ethnic conflict broke out in Kosovo, a majority Albanian province in southern Serbia, which led to the mass exodus of thousands of ethnic Albanians in 1998 and early 1999; nearly all of these 850,000 refugees returned to Kosovo starting in mid-1999, many seeking revenge against the Serbs. © Joachim Ladefoged / VII.

Kommandokorps in South Africa organizes camps during school holidays for young white Afrikaner teenagers, teaching them self-defence and how to combat a perceived black enemy. The groupÕs leader, self-proclaimed ÔColonelÕ Franz Jooste, served with the South African Defence Force under the old apartheid regime and eschews the vision of a multicultural nation. Photo by Ilvy Njiokiktjien About the BORN FREE feature: Children born in South Africa around 1994 are part of the Born Free Generation. This generation, the first to be born after apartheid, is supposed to bring unity and change to the country. They are MandelaÕs human legacy: the first generation in which every South African has the same opportunities and racial segregation, on paper, is a thing of the past. They were to be the face of a new, free, and successful South Africa. Nelson Mandela always had a big heart for the youth, and would often refer to his dreams for the youth in his speeches. In this feature the born frees question the outcome of the dream Mandela had for them. They also talk about modern day racism; What is it like to be black, or colored in this modern day world? The South African story has many connections to other race related stories around the world. Many born frees live successful lives, and are making careers that they wouldn't have been able to do during the old racist regime. There is a big group that is thriving in the new South Africa. But at the same time, there is still a long way to go. Corruption, crime and poverty are keeping many of the born frees captive. Instead of enjoying freedom and prosperity, this Ôborn free generationÕ struggles Ñsometimes even more than their parentsÑ with unemployment and inequality. Official segregation may be a thing of the past, but class segregation seems to have taken its place. And for many South Africans, childhood is a time shaped by extreme violence and the aftermath of HIV and AIDS. © Ilvy Njiokiktjien / VII.

Captured Ethiopian government soldiers at a prisoner of war camp in the mountains of Tigray in June 2021. Some 6,000 government troops were captured by the Tigray People's Liberation Front during fighting in Ethiopia's northern Tigray region. Fighting broke out in Tigray in November 2020 when the government accused the TPLF of attacking military bases across the region, which the party denied. The civil war has drawn in neighboring Eritrea on the side of the Ethiopian government and has been marked by atrocities, starvation, and allegations of war crimes by both sides. The government declared victory three weeks into the conflict when it took control of the regional capital Mekelle, but the Tigrayan guerrilla army known as the Tigray Defense Forces (TDF) retook Mekelle and most of Tigray at the end of June after the government suffered a cascade of battlefield loses. Thousands of people have died in the fighting; around 2 million have been displaced, and more than 5 million rely on food aid. © Finbarr O'Reilly / VII.

Liliesleaf Farm, Johannesburg, Gauteng. In the early 1960s, Liliesleaf Farm was secretly used by members of the African National Congress, including Nelson Mandela, who lived at the farm under the assumed name of David Motsamayi, as a worker in blue overalls employed by the owner to look after the farm. In a crushing blow for the ANC and its armed wing, Umkhonto we Sizwe, South African security forces raided the farm on July 11, 1963, capturing 19 members of the underground as they were meeting to plan attacks on the government. The raid led to the Rivonia Trial (named after the neighborhood in which Liliesleaf stands), in which ten leaders of the ANC were tried for 221 acts of sabotage, which the government said were designed to “foment violent revolution.” Mandela was among those sentenced to life in prison; he was sent to Robben Island, where he served 18 of his 27 years in captivity. Today, the farm is a national museum, dedicated to keeping awareness of the early liberation struggle alive. May 2013. © Sara Terry / VII.
