News Photo Essay

of the Year

 
 

Chris McGrath

Each picture in Chris’s essay is a strong standalone frame that, combined with the others, vividly depicts the consequences of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Families displaced and separated; communities destroyed; civilian and military lives lost. And, like the final frame, it keeps trundling along, a deadly toll growing in its wake.
