The impact of bombs on the human mind

People living through situations of armed conflict often witness the use of explosive weapons and their horrific consequences when used in towns, cities, and other populated areas. In this episode, Article 36 speaks to a survivor in northern Iraq who fled the war in Ras Al-Ain in northern-eastern Syria, about her experiences and trauma during and after attacks on her hometown. INEW gains insight from Professor Edgar Jones of King's College London who specialises in the psychological impact of modern war and conflict and Alma Taslidžan Al-Osta, an Advocacy Manager at Humanity and Inclusion who works with people impacted by bombing.
