AFFILIATION: Reuters
HONORED WORK: “Slaughter in Sudan”
While much of the world’s attention focused on the wars in Gaza and Ukraine, this Reuters series bore witness to a systematic massacre in Sudan that has gone largely unreported. Trenchant, moving, and deeply probing, the series lays bare how one side in Sudan’s civil war unleashed a campaign of ethnic slaughter against the Masalit people of West Darfur.
