This image depicts an outdoor gathering in Mandisar, Afghanistan, under a clear blue sky. A man in his 30s or 40s, with dark hair, a beard, and a mustache, is prominently featured in the foreground, seated on dry, light-colored earth. He wears a light blue traditional Afghan garment and looks directly forward with a somber expression. He holds a laminated white document, which appears to be an official application for aid titled "درخواست کمک بلاعوض" (Request for Non-Refundable Aid), displaying text in Dari or Pashto, official seals, and handwritten marks. Behind him, a dense crowd of approximately two dozen men, similarly dressed in traditional attire, are seated on the ground, extending into the mid-ground. Many have beards; their postures and gazes vary, some looking towards the front, others away. In the background, a tall, beige concrete wall spans horizontally, with a light-colored building structure partially visible beyond it to the left. The ground throughout the scene is dry and dusty.
