LAS CHUÑAS, CHACO, ARGENTINA - NOVEMBER, 2012: Raúl and Ezequiel Yukarovich with their parents, outside their house. They are 10 and 6 years old, respectively. Both are blind. Raúl was born without an eyeball, apart from neurological problems, and both of them suffer from hydrocephalus and myelomeningocele. The community of la Chuñas is constantly affected by the spraying, from aircrafts and spraying machines, of agrochemical products which do not abide by the legislation in force and act with complete impunity and with the consent of the authorities. The products used for the spraying are Gliphosate, 2,4 D, Endosulfan and Chlorpyrifos.
