This nighttime image captures a large gathering of individuals in Sa'a Square, Homs, Syria, centered around the prominent Old Clock Tower. The tall, multi-story clock tower, featuring illuminated clock faces and vertical light strips, stands in the background. A dense crowd, predominantly composed of men and young adults in civilian clothing, occupies the foreground and midground. Several individuals are positioned on the lower base of the clock tower. Multiple flags of the Syrian opposition, identifiable by their black, white, and green horizontal stripes with three red stars, are visibly displayed and actively waved throughout the assembly, with one flag in motion blur. To the left, a multi-story building with windows and Arabic text on its facade is partially visible and illuminated. The scene is lit by various artificial light sources, including streetlights, which produce noticeable lens flares. A young male in a green striped shirt stands in the immediate foreground, looking towards the camera.
