The uprising started in southern Deraa 9 months ago and now with the growing role of military defectors, the prospect of a civil war is looming.

French photojournalist Mani has just brought back a highly exclusive feature from Homs and its countryside, the centre of this ongoing revolt. This is the very first comprehensive photographic feature from Syria.

The French philosopher and writer Bernard-Henri Levy went for the third time in Libya at the end of May 2011. After a 24 hours crossing between Malta and the Port of Misrata on a makeshift boat, the Sea Tiger, BHL found the intensity of the fighting between the loyalist troops of Qaddafi and the Libyan rebels. Fights with heavy weapons – more than 120 tanks destroyed litter the streets of Misrata – against a handful of Chebabs, mostly armed with simple Kalashnikov, that resisted the attempted urbicide orchestrated by Qaddafi.
