Les nouveaux photographes de l'Agence VII

Photo by Anush Babajanyan / VII. 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.
