"LIFE WITHOUT LIGHTS"
A lantern is lit on the rooftop of one of the few remaining occupied houses in Binika, Kifree District, Kurdistan, Iraq on July 10, 2010. Binika was once a thriving community with over 150 families, electricity, schools, and a clinic, but it was never completely rebuilt after Saddam Hussein's 1988 genocide against the Kurds. Few people returned to the village, and now, after years of conflict, economic instability, and sanctions on the region, only a handful of families remain.
