A young worker grinds off the sharp edges from a mortar shell that will be filled, assembled and shipped to the front lines from this location on June 22, 2013, northern Syria. This young laborer works in an underground factory that produces munitions for one of the most powerful Free Syrian Army brigades in the area, the Ahrar Suriyah.
