A Russian woman holds her young daughter as she waits on a Russian Army base with other civilians to be evacuated from Kulob, a southern Tajikistan town near the Afghanistan border, during the civil war in Tajikistan. It has been estimated that the ethnic conflict which began in 1992 and ended in 1997 killed from 50,000 to 100,000 Tajiks and created more than one million refugees. Photo by Chuck Nacke
