An outdoor daytime scene in Homs, Syria, depicts approximately 20-30 individuals, predominantly adult males, engaged in a planting operation within a dirt-covered area. The ground features small green saplings and white concrete cinder blocks. Multiple individuals wear military-style camouflage uniforms; one is actively using a shovel to dig soil in the mid-ground, and another has an AK-style rifle slung across their back. Several uniformed individuals have full beards. Other participants are dressed in civilian attire, observing or assisting. The background is dominated by extensively damaged multi-story concrete buildings, characteristic of a conflict-affected urban environment. A large vertical banner, resembling the Syrian national flag with green, white, and black stripes and two red stars, hangs from a prominent damaged building on the right, displaying Arabic script below. A distant building in the urban landscape bears a sign reading "HOTEL AL-WALEED." The sky is clear blue.
