EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a pivotal moment during the invasion of Poland by the German Army in 1939. The image shows a busy road leading to Brest-Litovsk, a city in central Poland, with military traffic attempting to pass in opposite directions. On the left, ordinary service cars of the German Army are visible, their tires kicking up dust as they move forward. On the right, one of the more curious vehicles catches the eye: a coffin-shaped car bearing the white Geneva crosses on its sides. These vehicles were used by the International Red Cross to transport wounded soldiers between the warring parties, and their presence on this battle-scarred road underscores the complexities of war and the need for humanitarian aid. The jam of vehicles on the road is a testament to the intensity of the military campaign, with Russian and German forces having met at Brest-Litovsk just a few days earlier to discuss the demarcation of the invaded Polish territory. This powerful image offers a glimpse into the larger narrative of World War II, as well as the intricacies of diplomacy and logistics during times of conflict.
