I read about a woman in Sri Lanka who was attempting to get some pension benefits from the government on behalf of her deceased husband. The official told her to wait and go home. And then she laughed, "but I have no home!"
Indeed these satellite pictures (especially the first pair) not only depict graphically what this woman said, but tell us that for many people this is not simply a matter of rebuilding the house. In many cases the land itself has disappeared, and with it possibly those people's livelihood.
