Kurdish children returning home

Historical photo set no.17: The beginning of the 1990s was marked by war in the Persian Gulf, followed by the exodus of 1.5 million Iraqi Kurds. Thousands found themselves trapped on snow-covered peaks and many did not survive. A massive international aid effort allowed many of the displaced, including these children, to return home within weeks of their flight.
