PHOTO ESSAY
Suffer Thy Children
PHOTOS COURTESY OF
KARAPATAN-SURIGAO DEL SUR
These
photos are almost too painful to look at. Each one illustrates how
innocent children become victims in government operations that target
their elders and, sometimes, even those barely older that they.
Some of them were
used as guides in the operations. Some were interrogated – and tortured
when they could not give the answers that the soldiers wanted to hear. All
of them lost the quiet lives they lived before the 11 trucks of soldiers
came.
These pictures were
taken at the evacuation center in Diatagon, Surigao Del Sur.
