Angola 12-2001

A boy and his mother at the civil hospital. The child was injured when an unexploded ordinance that he and his friends found and were playing with blew up. One boy was killed, another lost part of his leg and the others suffered minor injuries. Despite vast reserves of petroleum, diamonds and natural resources, decades of fighting between FAA (Fora Armada Angolana) forces and UNITA rebels have impoverished Angola and crippled its people. .Luena, Angola. 30-11-2001.Photo: J.B.
