An Iraqi detainee rests his head in his hands while sitting on a prayer rug in a holding pen in Camp Bucca, May 19, 2008. At the time this image was taken, this war prison held more than 18,500 Iraqi detainees. In 2009 the U.S. military announced that the base would be closed, and the following year, the U.S. handed it over to the government of Iraq — in Umm Qasr port Basra Iraq.

Hansen took pictures as the Jews were forced into an abandoned sugar factory around 3km outside the city centre. Locked within, the Jews would live as best they could until one day in 1942 the Germans called out their names in alphabetical order and murdered them.
