The thirty-year civil war known as The Troubles erupted in 1968, yet its roots stretched back centuries to the Norman invasion and the long history of English rule in Ireland. When violence flared, Abbas traveled there to document both the street-level conflict and its deeper historical tensions. He observed, “The war was more tribal than it was religious. Very often you wonder why they’re fighting, because culturally they’re the same people. Religion was important but it was secondary to the tribal aspects of the civil war.” In this image, flames engulf a building and its facade collapses during a suspected IRA attack, capturing the raw intensity of the struggle. Presented in collaboration with Magnum Photos.
