Fotoreportaža prikazuje Hartum kao grad koji se polako oporavlja nakon tri godine rata: prazni zabavni parkovi, razorene zgrade i ulice pune čahura i neeksplodiranih naprava. Volonteri iskopavaju improvizovana groblja dok hiljade posmrtnih ostataka ostaju neidentifikovane. Jedina funkcionalna mrtvačnica u Omdurmanu, bolnica Al Nao, vodi bazu podataka koja može pomoći u identifikaciji nestalih i i dalje leči ranjene.
Fotoreportaža: Hartum se polako vraća u život posle tri godine rata

Hartum, prestonica Sudana, posle tri godine ratovanja deluje kao grad-duh: promenjeni obrisi poznatih zgrada, prazni javni prostori i ljudi koji pokušavaju da vrate normalnost u grad koji je pretrpeo višestruka razaranja.
Deca šeću praznim zabavnim parkom u senci zgrada koje su, nakon napada, pretvorene u ruševine. Ulice i tlo su prekriveni čahurama, krhotinama i neeksplodiranim eksplozivnim napravama, što dodatno ugrožava povratak i bezbednost meštana.
Konflikt između sudanske vojske i paravojne formacije Rapid Support Forces (RSF) i dalje se vodi u drugim delovima zemlje, pa i pored povratka vojske u Hartum, pretnja novog nasilja ostaje prisutna.
U mnogim delovima grada postavljena su improvizovana groblja duž ulica; volonteri ih sada iskopavaju u pokušaju da identifikuju posmrtne ostatke. Nekima se zna identitet, ali hiljade žrtava ostaju neidentifikovane, što dodatno opterećuje porodice i zajednice.
Za porodice koje traže nestale, nada se nalazi u bazi podataka mrtvačnice bolnice Al Nao u susednom Omdurmanu — jedinoj mrtvačnici koja je ostala funkcionalna dok je prestonica bila pod kontrolom RSF-a. Bolnica je bila meta nekoliko bombardovanja, ali i dalje prima ranjene i pruža neophodnu negu, među kojima je i devojčica koja je izgubila oko.
Otprilike od trenutka kada je vojska prošle godine povratila kontrolu nad Hartumom, vlasti pozivaju građane da se vrate i počnu obnavljanje života i infrastrukture. Ipak, mnogi stanovnici oklijevaju zbog rizika od neeksplodiranih sredstava, neizvesnosti i nedostatka osnovnih usluga.
Šta ostaje
Grad se polako oporavlja, ali put ka potpunom povratku u normalu je dug: potrebni su radovi čišćenja terena, identifikacija žrtava i obnova bolnica, škola i drugih javnih servisa. Dokumentovanje i baze podataka, poput one u Al Nao, pokazuju koliki je značaj sistematskog pristupa u procesu obnove i pomirenja.
