Soldiers

War does not only create victims and heroes—it blurs the lines of morality. This category includes images of soldiers stationed on Mount Trebević, their sniper rifles pointed at the city below. In one haunting moment, a soldier, when Mario asked whether he distinguishes between men, women, and children, simply replies, “No.”

These images and stories challenge us to consider how war changes people, how it takes away from empathy and replaces it with detachment.
