This image captures an urban landscape in Harasta, Syria, under an overcast sky. The foreground consists of an unpaved, light-brown dirt ground, scattered with debris, including a folded black and grey fabric item in the lower-left. A large, irregular depression or excavated area dominates the middle ground, characterized by exposed earth, rubble, and scattered dry vegetation. A partially obscured white object, possibly refuse, is visible on the right slope of this depression. In the background, to the left, stands a large, light-colored mosque featuring a central dome and a single slender minaret, surrounded by trees and appearing structurally intact. To the right, a street runs parallel to the excavated area, lined by multi-story concrete buildings. Many of these structures exhibit significant damage, with visible exposed rebar, missing walls, and incomplete floors, suggesting extensive destruction or ongoing reconstruction. Some ground-level units function as commercial storefronts; one shop on the far right displays multiple white window frames leaning against its exterior. A white panel van is parked on the street on the far right. A single individual in a light-colored garment is discernible near the window frames, and another faint figure is near the van.
