IRAQ. Albu Ajeel, Salahaddin Province. February 3, 2016. Mazen Kliab, a Sunni villager from Albu Ajeel, on the outskirts of Tikirt, stands with his two sons in front of a cracked wall in his destroyed home. Mazen and his family fled Albu Ajeel when the Islamic State took control of the area and returned recently to find his home destroyed.
In order to help Mazen and other families cope, the International Committee of the Red Cross distributes food parcels to returnees and has also rehabilitated the water supply to Albu Ajeel residents.
