A farmer shows freshly picked red peppers during processing in Salqin village in Syria's rebel-held Idlib province, near the border with Turkey, on September 14, 2024. During harvest season, Salqin, alongside other towns of Syria's northwestern rebel-held Idlib region traditionally growing this crop, is colored red as farmers process the peppers, drying them on balconies and rooftops to produce flakes, paste, and powder, to be sold in local or external markets, a livelihood which has become threatened in recent years due to its increasing costs amid climate change and conflict.
