Photographer Rehab Eldalil puts a Sinai Bedouin tribe under int’l spotlight

While news of the recent exchange of fire with Israel that killed one Egyptian soldier is dominating mentions of Egypt in the global press, the New Yorker is out with a piece putting a spotlight on a Bedouin tribe in St. Catherine captured through the lens of Egyptian photographer Rehab Eldalil. Eldalil’s series called The Longing of the Stranger Whose Path Has Been Broken captures the tribe’s deep-rooted connection to the land around St. Catherine, a relationship historically strained by colonization, occupation, and increasingly urbanization.
