Abbas Karimi, 14, who was born without arms, poses for a photo in Kabul, February 12, 2013. Decades of conflict poverty and neglect prevent a large number of disabled Afghans from pursuing sport. If he gets the support he needs, the teenager will be the first Afghan to represent his county as a swimmer in the games next due to take place in Brazil in 2014. Picture taken on February 12, 2013.
