An outdoor wide shot captures a large, densely packed cemetery in Jirud, Syria, under a clear, bright blue sky. The foreground and midground are dominated by numerous graves, each marked by a simple, light-colored upright headstone, predominantly white or light grey concrete/stone, some with rounded tops. Many graves consist of raised, rectangular concrete borders enclosing soil beds, frequently planted with low-growing green succulent-like groundcover and some sparse, dry grasses. The ground between graves is largely light brown, arid soil. No individuals are present. In the background, a residential area is visible, featuring multi-story buildings constructed from light-colored stone or concrete. A prominent wooden utility pole with four visible horizontal power lines stands centrally, rising above the buildings. Behind the residential structures, a band of green trees provides a buffer before a distant range of barren, tan-colored mountains, illuminated by direct sunlight, recedes into the far background.
