Bakhmut, Ukraine, once a city of nearly 80,000, has been obliterated by a year of shelling and assault from the Russian Armed Forces. An estimated 4,000 people were left in the city as of March, almost every building has been left scorched or reduced to rubble, and craters can be seen in parks and courtyards. Last week, Russia claimed to have captured Bakhmut, while a small outfit of Ukrainian forces remains on the eastern side of the city.

Baljenac is a small island in the Adriatic Sea, located off the Dalmatian Coast of Croatia. Although it is only about 34 acres (14 hectares) in area, it contains a network of roughly 14 miles (23 km) of low stone walls — making it resemble a fingerprint from above. Baljenac is uninhabited; its walls were built by residents of the nearby island of Kaprije to separate crop fields and vineyards.
