Context added by this archive

Two files of soldiers with batons down both sides of a lane, and a woman in a white headscarf walking between them with a man behind her. The verb the caption gives the soldiers is monitor. The woman is going to prayer, which the caption explains happens every day, as though the daily thing in the picture were the praying.
