Mohammed Salem won the 2024 World Press Photo of the Year award for his image of a Palestinian woman cradling the body of her five-year-old niece in the Gaza Strip.
The picture was taken on 17 October 2023 at the Nasser hospital in Khan Younis.
The image shows Inas Abu Maamar, 36, holding the body of her niece Saly, who was killed along with her mother and sister when an Israeli missile hit their home in Khan Younis.
"The jury commented on how the image was composed with care and respect, offering at once a metaphorical and literal glimpse into unimaginable loss," the World Press Photo Foundation said

π Unlock your potential with these essential tips for comparisons in IELTS Writing and Speaking! π
1οΈβ£ Comparative Adjectives:
Make comparisons effortlessly by understanding how to form comparative adjectives.
Short adjectives typically add -er, while longer ones use 'more' before the adjective to indicate a higher degree of comparison.
Additionally, some adjectives have irregular comparative forms.
Here are five example adjectives with their comparative forms:
- Short Adjectives with -er: fast (faster), big (bigger), cheap (cheaper)
- Long Adjectives with 'more': beautiful (more beautiful), interesting (more interesting)
- Irregular Adjectives: good (better), bad (worse), far (farther/further)
Now let's see some examples of how they can be used in IELTS context:
- Example for Task 1: The GDP of China is higher than that of India.
- Example for Task 2: The cost of living in New York City is more expensive than in London.
- Example for Speaking: My hometown is smaller than the capital city.
2οΈβ£ As...As / Not As...As / Just As...As: Perfect for showing similarities or differences:
- Explanation: 'As...As' indicates equality or similarity, 'Not As...As' shows inequality, and 'Just As...As' implies no difference between the compared entities.
- Example for Task 1: The literacy rate in France is as high as that in Germany.
- Example for Task 2: The unemployment rate in Spain is not as low as that in Sweden.
- Example for Speaking: My brother's car is just as fast as mine.
3οΈβ£ Adverbs of Degree: Add depth to your comparisons:
- Explanation: Use adverbs to specify the degree of difference between compared entities, adding nuance to your comparisons.
- Example for Task 1: The number of tourists visiting Paris increased slightly more than that of Rome.
- Example for Task 2: The temperature in the desert rose considerably higher than in the mountains.
- Example for Speaking: Her fluency in English improved far more rapidly than in French.
4οΈβ£ Double Comparative: Describe ongoing changes:
- Explanation: Repeating the adjective is one way, while using 'increasingly' with the simple form of the adjective is another way to illustrate continuous changes or trends, especially in the present continuous tense.
- Example 1 (Repeating Adjective) for Task 1: The demand for renewable energy sources is increasing higher and higher every year.
- Example 2 (Using 'Increasingly') for Task 2: The level of pollution is becoming increasingly alarming in urban areas.
- Example 3 (Using 'Increasingly') for Speaking: The quality of education is declining increasingly due to budget cuts.
5οΈβ£ Comparing Two Dependent Things: Highlight the relationship:
- Explanation: Use 'the...the' to emphasize the correlation between two factors, showing how one affects or is affected by the other.
- Example for Task 1: The more emphasis you put on vocabulary, the better your IELTS writing will be.
- Example for Task 2: The fewer mistakes you make in grammar, the higher your speaking score will be.
- Example for Speaking: The earlier you start preparing for the exam, the more confident you'll feel on test day.
