A young boy walks along a dirt road in Kandahar, Afghanistan

A young boy walks along a dirt road in Kandahar, Afghanistan. He is wearing a brown traditional outfit and carries a clear plastic bag filled with yellow contents over his shoulder. Behind him is a large, weathered reddish-brown metal gate, showing signs of age and wear. To the gate's left is a partially destroyed wall with a blue sign affixed, and to the right, another section of dilapidated wall. The ground is dusty and appears arid. The sky is overcast.
