The Ministry of Love was the really frightening one. There were no windows in it at all. Winston had never been inside the Ministry of Love, nor within half a kilometre 
of it. It was a place impossible to enter except on official business, and then only by penetrating through a maze of barbed-wire entanglements, steel doors, and hidden 
machine-gun nests. Even the streets leading up to its outer barriers were roamed by gorilla-faced guards in black uniforms, armed with jointed truncheons.

Displaced Iraqis who fled Fallujah, in a camp in Habbaniyah. They fled starvation and Islamic State tyranny in Fallujah for the safety of displacement camps but thousands of Iraqi families still have nothing to eat and nowhere to sleep. "The government told us to leave our homes, so we did. The way they described it, we were going to find heaven," said Ayyub Yusef, a 32-year-old from Fallujah. "I don't regret leaving because we would have died. Here, we are alive, just about, but it's really just another kind of hell...": photo by Haidar Mohammed Ali/AFP, 20 June 2016



Displaced Iraqis put up tents in a camp in Habbaniyah. One young woman was furious. "We had to live through the tyranny of Daesh (IS) and now it's just another injustice," she said, declining to give her name. "Five days here and nothing to eat, not even a bottle of water... This camp is just like the rest of Iraq, if you don't have connections, you will get nothing," she said. "Shame on them, there is no bathroom for the women... We have to go in the desert," said the woman, her eyes blazing with rage through the slit of her niqab face veil.: photo by Haidar Mohammed Ali/AFP, 20 June 2016
