In photos: AP's Pulitzer Prize-winning images from their coverage of the war in Ukraine
Coverage of the war in Ukraine dominated the Pulitzer Prizes on Monday, with The Associated Press winning two awards for breaking news photography and the prestigious public service prize for reporting. Their journalists were the last from an international news organization to remain in the Ukrainian city Mariupol after it came under fire from Russian troops. The AP photojournalists provided “unique and urgent images from the first weeks of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine,” the committee said.
