MUST SEE: Touching images of a wedding in a warzone

They are surrounded by death and devastation on a daily basis.

But that didn't stop these newlyweds from showing their love for each other in their beloved hometown.

The bride and her soldier groom were pictured posing for a remarkable photoshoot following their wedding in the war-torn Syrian city of Homs. 

Behind them, buildings stood abandoned and partially blown apart, while rubble littered the dusty ground. 

At other points in the shoot, the bride beamed as she saluted her spouse -- a Syrian Army soldier -- and gazed lovingly at him as he kissed her hands.

The touching pictures were taken by photographer Jafar Meray, who said he wished to capture the 'stainless hopeful' in Syria.

Meray shared the images on his Facebook page, JafaR Photography, writing: 'Honeymooners from Syria.

'They chose rubble and destruction to be the background pictures of their wedding.'

The photographer said the shoot was 'proof that life goes on, silently' and that hope 'is always there'.

The city of Homs has been a major battleground in the uprising against President Bashar al-Assad. But earlier this month, more than 700 rebels and their families began leaving the last insurgent-held area in the city following several years of combat after reaching a ceasefire with the government.

Despite this, at least 32 people were killed and 90 injured in two bomb explosions in Homs on Monday, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.

The blasts, one from a car bomb and another from a suicide attack, struck the Zahra district in the middle of the city.

The attack was the second major one in the city since the ceasefire took effect - after twin blasts on December, also in Zahra, killed at least 16 people.
