A powerful photo has been released, shedding light on the harsh reality of Australia’s housing crisis.
It captures a woman taking shelter under a tarpaulin in Eddie Highland Park, Moreton Bay, Queensland.
The image was taken as rough sleepers were being evicted from the park.
In the photo, the woman is seen crying in the rain, symbolizing the growing plight of the homeless.
Beau Heywood, founder of the charity Nourish Street, said authorities are testing the limits of their powers to evict her.
The Queensland Council faces criticism for allegedly waging a “war on the poor” amid the ongoing homelessness crisis.
