EDITORS COMMENTS
WWI: REFUGEES, 1918. A poignant snapshot of resilience and hope amidst the chaos of war. In this evocative photograph captured in Bethlehem, a group of refugees from Jericho gather in front of Rachel's Tomb, seeking solace and shelter during World War I. The image transports us to an early desert morning, where men, women, and children stand together with their horses as symbols of strength and endurance. Their faces tell stories of hardship but also determination - a testament to the human spirit even in times of great adversity. As sepia tones lend an air of nostalgia to the scene, we are reminded that these individuals were caught up in a global conflict beyond their control. Yet they found refuge at Rachel's Tomb - a place steeped in biblical history and revered for its spiritual significance. Amongst them stands an unidentified family; their bond unbroken despite the uncertainty that surrounds them. The Red Cross emblem on some clothing hints at assistance provided by humanitarian organizations during this tumultuous period. This powerful photograph serves as a reminder not only of the impact war has on innocent lives but also our collective responsibility to provide aid and support to those displaced by conflict. It is through such historical snapshots that we gain insight into humanity's ability to endure against all odds.
