Empty playground with Iraq flag in the background | Tuz Khormatu, Iraq, October 2017

I've taken this photo in ex-sunni Arab district in the part of Tuz Khormatu under government control. During this time city was divided between Peshmerga (Kurds) and Hashd al-Shsabi (predominantly shia paramilitary groups with huge iranian influence). During shia-sunni conflict this district was strongly ethnic cleansed from sunni Arabs. During our stay some of them have came back. In late October Shia and government forces push kurdish Peshmerga out of the city.
