The Highway of Death

Twenty five years ago, one of the most brutal massacres in war history occurred in Iraq, along Highway 80, about 32 km west of Kuwait city. On the night of February 26–27, 1991, thousands of Iraqi soldiers and civilians were retreating to Baghdad, after a ceasefire was announced, when President George Bush ordered his forces to slaughter the retreating Iraqi army. Fighter planes of the coalition forces swooped down upon the unarmed convoy and disabled the vehicles in the front, and at the rear, so that they couldn’t escape. Then wave after wave of aircraft pounded the trapped vehicles for hours on end. After the carnage was over, some 2,000 mangled Iraqi vehicles, and charred and dismembered bodies of tens of thousands of Iraqi soldiers lay for miles along what came to be known as the “Highway of Death”. Several hundred more littered along another road, Highway 8, that leads to Basra. The scenes of devastation on these two roads became some of the most recognizable images of the Gulf War.

Mom Gives Birth To Quintuplets, Has The Most Adorable Photoshoot

Mom Gives Birth To Quintuplets, Has The Most Adorable Photoshoot

On August 18th, 2015, 26-year-old Kim Tucci had the surprise of her life: she and her husband, proud parents of three children, found out that they were expecting quintuplets! And after a good pregnancy, on January 28th, Tucci gave birth to her five darlings: Tiffany, Penelope, Beatrix, Allie, and Keith. Australian photographer Erin Elizabeth Hoskins was there to capture it all.

Some might say that Kim should have known–after all, she was eating 6,000 calories per day while pregnant! Others are amazed that it took her just 2 minutes to deliver all 5 babies (OK, fine, it was a caesarian section , but it still sounds impressive!).

Now, the Tucci family needs a special car that can seat nine, as even a regular visit to the doctor presently requires three automobiles. Kim’s grandmother, Denis, has launched a GoFundMe campaign to help the family raise money, so after taking a look at the pictures below, make consider going and making a contribution!
