Alep, Syrie — Il y a des hommes, des rêves, et des objets plus forts que la guerre, et Mohammed Mahiedine Anis, sa collection de voitures anciennes, sa pipe et son phonographe, en font partie.

Le collectionneur avait fait l’objet d’un reportage vidéo à Alep, il y a un peu plus d’un an, par mon collègue syrien et photographe Karam Al-Masri. Nous l’avons retrouvé avec le directeur du bureau de Beyrouth, Sammy Ketz et le JRI de Damas, Youssef Karwashan. Ses voitures détruites, mais lui bien vivant, avec toujours ses rêves, sa pipe et sa musique.

#Karam_Al-Masri : « Je ne reverrai plus jamais la tombe de ma mère à #Alep »

Il s’appelle Karam Al-Masri, il est Syrien, il a 25 ans. Son nom ne vous évoque pas grand-chose, mais vous avez certainement déjà vu l’une de ses photos. Depuis 2013, ce jeune Syrien couvre la guerre à Alep pour l’Agence France-Presse. Ses photos ont fait la Une des médias du monde entier. Mais avant cela, sa vie n’a été qu’une succession de malheurs avec notamment la mort de ses parents, tués par le régime de Bachar el-Assad. Karam Al-Masri a également été emprisonné par le groupe Etat islamique. Il y a quelques semaines, il signait ce témoignage émouvant dans lequel il racontait son histoire. Son titre : « Couvrir Alep, la peur au ventre et le ventre vide ». Karam a quitté son Alep natal et se trouve désormais dans un petit village non loin d’Idlib. Il livre en exclusivité un témoignage poignant à RFI.

Couvrir Alep, la peur au ventre et le ventre vide | Karam Al-Masri
►https://making-of.afp.com/couvrir-alep-la-peur-au-ventre-et-le-ventre-vide

En cinq ans, il a connu malheur après malheur : la prison du régime puis celle de l’EI, la mort de ses parents dans un raid, le siège de son Alep natal, la faim et l’enfer des bombardements. Malgré ce terrible parcours, notre correspondant Karam Al-Masri, photographe et vidéaste dans la partie rebelle de la deuxième ville de Syrie nous raconte au jour le jour, avec un courage qui ne vacille pas, l’histoire de cette métropole dévorée par une guerre sans merci.
