The scene is located in Sarouja Municipality, Syria. The image displays an urban environment characterized by extensive structural damage. Multiple multi-story concrete buildings in the background exhibit severe destruction, including collapsed sections, missing windows, and exposed rebar, with rubble accumulated at their bases. The sky above is partly cloudy, featuring both wispy white cirrus and more substantial grey stratiform clouds. In the mid-ground, a white Hyundai van is visible on an unpaved road or area. Several individuals are present near the damaged buildings: one person is seated on the ground wearing dark clothing, while two to three others stand nearby. Additional vehicles, including parts of a black SUV and a silver sedan, are partially visible to the right. The foreground is occupied by the white roof and side window of a vehicle, which appears to be the point of origin for the photograph, with a reflection of a person holding a mobile phone visible in the window. The lighting suggests late afternoon or early evening.
