  1. Capturing history through the lens

    Over the past few days, my camera has documented deeply emotional moments as newly released Captives return home to Gaza. These frames reflect a reality filled with profound relief, long-awaited reunions, and the unbreakable human spirit amidst ongoing hardships.

  3. The Persistence of Peace

    Of all the things competing for attention on this wall, one word refused to be ignored. I found this on a street in Sarajevo. A single word, repeated three times: MIR. In Bosnian, Serbian, and Croatian, mir means both peace and quiet. The word appeared not on a pristine monument or carefully curated mural, but on a wall crowded with torn advertisements, graffiti, and the accumulated marks of a city that has lived through more than its share of history. That felt appropriate. Peace rarely […]

  5. Today I recorded the sound of planes overhead. The sound is terrifying, especially since we live in tents that offer no protection from the heat, the cold, or even fear. We live each day in anxiety and exhaustion, with no safety or stability. We are tired and we keep trying.#Gaza #LivingInFear #LifeInTents #ChildrenDeserveSafety #HumanStories #SupportFamilies #HopeAmidHardship

  7. In the heat of summer, and with tents that can’t protect us from the burning weather, we put water in clay pots so we can drink it. Otherwise, the water becomes too hot. This is part of our daily struggle living in tents — searching for a simple sip of cool water.

  9. Sony Pictures Chiefs on AI, Bidding Wars, and the Film Business

    Sony Pictures Classics leaders say AI can't make real human stories. They focus on relationships, not bidding wars, for films.

  11. "Sister, don't you have anything to ask us?" Hours after sharing their stories and smiles with Mathrubhumi correspondent, these fireworks artisans were caught in a devastating blast. From 73-year-old Prema, who was working her final day, to the young men crafting the ola-padakkam, this is a heart-wrenching tribute to the lives behind the spectacle. A haunting reminder of the faces we lost to the flames. english.mathrubhumi.com/news/k #ThrissurPooram #KeralaTragedy #HumanStories #FireworksAccident

  12. @PugJesus Beautiful reminder that Iran’s Caspian coast isn’t just geopolitics—it’s home to people, history, and landscapes that refuse to be erased by sanctions or blockades. Keep showing the human side. #Iran #CaspianSea #HumanStories

  13. There’s a lot being said right now about inclusion.

    But inclusion is often understood as access, not recognition.

    And those are not the same thing.

    For many women, especially those moving across borders, this line is lived every day.

    Not as absence of ability, but as absence of recognition.

    This piece is about what happens when that line is redrawn.

  15. This book isn’t just about missions. It’s about people. About the sacrifices they made. About how the Cold War shaped their lives.

  17. Resilience is not a superpower. It is the quiet, daily persistence to maintain one's dignity and connection during a season of uncertainty.

    On Fabien’s Journey, I explore what it looks like to keep building when the path ahead is unclear—focusing on the human stories.

    Let’s journey together:

  18. Stranded in Rafah as an Israeli Invasion Looms - The New York Times

    Two interviews with #Gaza citizens and their experiences since Oct 7. Each moved multiple times, each lost so much - family members; a house he had just spent two years building and furnishing, with a nice area to sit, have coffee and talk. This alone is such a tragic, huge loss: normal life, a home, aspiration, happiness, peace; everything that makes a person.

  19. Worrying about #Normalisation just now. Not the rapprochement btw Israel and Arab countries but the normalisation of suffering and ongoing problems; that the longer the Gaza bombing goes on, the more “normal” it becomes and the less attention the world pays (as with other ongoing conflicts). Same with #ClimateEmergency - we are quickly getting used to all the catastrophic news. So important to tell #HumanStories, to keep #Humanism and #Empathy for everyone alive, in all of us
