Heartbreaking Photo Named World Press' Photo of the Year

Evgeniy Maloletka, a Ukrainian photographer, won the World Press Photo of the year for his image of emergency workers carrying a fatally wounded pregnant woman through the shattered grounds of a maternity hospital in Mariupol, Ukraine, after a Russian attack. The photo highlights the horror of Russia's brutal onslaught in the eastern port city early in the war. Maloletka and AP video journalist Mystyslav Chernov stayed in Mariupol for more than two weeks, chronicling the Russian military pounding the city and hitting hospitals and other civilian infrastructure. The pair were the only international journalists left in the city when they finally managed a risky escape.
