BORN IN A TIME OF WAR
CLIENT: AL JAZEERA AMERICA
Mariam Rizik, 26, five months pregnant, poses for a portrait with two of her five children in her village of Lukweti, Masisi in conflict-ridden North Kivu, Democratic Republic of Congo. When APCLS rebels clashed with the Congolese army in the village earlier this year, Mariam and her family fled with nothing more than the pots in the wash bucket in front of her, hiding in the bush from February through May. They are now trying to rebuild their lives in a home that they are renting.
