• This photograph portrays Branka Mitrović, a young woman who joined the fighting around Srebrenica during the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The image was sent to the French photo agency Gamma, where editor Didier Contant suggested developing a broader report focused on her story. According to her account, a Muslim family with many women and children had recently been captured in the area. Fighters whose own families had been massacred demanded retaliation. Branka Mitrović positioned herself in front of the family and addressed her fellow combatants, stating that they could kill her, but that the civilians must not be harmed. The photograph documents both the presence of women in combat roles and the moral tensions faced on the front line.
