portrait as he rests at a school which
has been turned into a temporary
shelter in Chakmarkul refugee camp,
Bangladesh. The 27-year-old was
asleep in his shelter last month
when a torrent of mud crashed
through the plastic wall next to him.
A tree root slammed into his head,
slicing open his skin. Now he and his
family are among 13 people living in
a one-room schoolhouse. Alom is
hoping officials will help him build a
new shelter, but he has no idea how
long that will take. (AP Photo/Wong

shut down during tourist season and forcing communities to evacuate. But the park's trails,

Cyril Ramaphosa, right, dance as singer Thandiswa Mazwai performs at an event marking the 100th
anniversary of the anti-apartheid leader’s birth, in Johannesburg on July 17.
Obama delivered the Nelson Mandela Annual Lecture, urging young people to fight to defend democracy,
human rights and peace, to a crowd of 15,000 people at the club as the centerpiece of the celebrations.
Obama has made relatively few public appearances since leaving the White House in 2017, but he has often
credited Mandela for being one of the great inspirations in his life.

Nubian man swims in the Nile River
on Heisa Island, in Aswan, Egypt.
The village of Heisa offers a
glimpse into what life was like for
Nubians in their homeland before
the upheavals of the last century. It
is perched on an island in the
Aswan reservoir, which was
created by the building of a small
dam in 1902. While other villages
surrounding it were evacuated
from the area, Heisa's people
stayed, moving to higher ground.

to this day still feel the trauma of
having their community shattered.
Many left the impoverished new
villages for Cairo, Alexandria and
other cities to find jobs, often as
household servants or doormen.

world of their parents and
grandparents was turned upside down
more than 50 years ago when they
were evacuated from villages along
the Nile River to make way for the
High Dam. Now a younger generation
of activists has revived the long-
campaigning for a return to their lands
and struggling to preserve their
culture. (AP Photo/Nariman El-Mofty)

The fact that all the new villages bore the same names as
the Nubians' now submerged home villages seemed almost
cruel. They became known as the villages of "tahgeer," or
exile. (AP Photo/Nariman El-Mofty)

years since, the tahgeer towns
have become indistinguishable

apartment blocks, mired in
poverty and underdevelopment.
"Tahgeer" Eneiba "is a place that
sends people away, no
investments, no jobs," he said.

released from government prisons, as they arrive to
El Eis area in southern Aleppo. In exchange, the
government was due to release hundreds of
prisoners from its jails. Pro-Damascus TV stations

from jail had crossed into rebel-held territory under
the agreement. REUTERS/Khalil Ashawi

Islamist rebels from Hayat Tahrir
al-Sham are seen near a bus
carrying people from the villages of
al-Foua and Kefraya. The conflict
has taken on a sectarian dimension
as it swelled out of protests against
Assad's rule in 2011. Shi'ite militias
backed by Iran have deployed from
across the region to help Damascus
against the rebels, many of whom
identified themselves as Sunni
Islamists. Assad comes from the
Alawite sect, an offshoot of Shi'ite
Islam. The conflict has killed an
estimated half a million people
and driven some 11 million from
their homes. REUTERS/Khalil
