UNB, Dhaka :
Mohammad Ponir Hossain, a Bangladeshi photojournalist, is one of the photography staff of Reuters team that won the Pulitzer Prize for feature photography documenting the Rohingya crisis in Myanmar and Bangladesh.
The Reuters photography staff was honored for images of the violence endured by the Rohingya, a Muslim minority, as they fled Myanmar for
Bangladesh, according to global media reports.
“The extraordinary photography of the mass exodus of the Rohingya people to Bangladesh demonstrates not only the human cost of conflict but also the essential role photojournalism can play in revealing it,” Reuters Editor-in-Chief Stephen J Adler said.
