Nice pictures but they are all set up in the first place, these are not pictures taken "live" in any way.

In one of them there's literally an explosion happening. I suppose you could fake that for a photo, but it was the middle of a war?

Even the photo with an explosion could be set up, like in an empty street far from the front line, with the explosion timed to the capture.

A few of them are clearly 'live', and the concentration camp survivor holding a human bone may be "set up" but I can't see how that takes away from the impact.

Why does it matter if they were set up or not?

Because then it's not war pictures, it's pictures used to create a narrative.
