Caviar & Cigarettes

simply-war:

Asan Bibi ,9, (R) and her sister Salima,13, (L) stand in the hallway of Mirwais hospital, both burn vctims when a helicopter fired into their tent in the middle of the night on October 3rd, according to their father October 13, 2009 Kandahar, Afghanistan. Three members of the family were killed in the incident.The family belong to the Kuchi ethnic tribe who are nomads living in tents out in the open desert and are very vunerable to a war they have little understanding of. 2009 was the deadliest year in terms of civilian casualties in Afghanistan ever since the start of the U.S.-led war against Taliban in the country. This photo essay takes a look at some of the victims of war, both civilian and military who are injured from both insurgent and foreign military action. The number of Afghan civilians being killed by foreign military operations has led to mounting tension between the various foreign countries and the Afghan government. More brazen suicide attacks and IED blasts are taking place in densely populated areas to create a bigger impact as more of Afghan’s war wounded hit the headlines.
