A snapshot of Pulitzer-winning photojournalist Danish Siddiqui's work

He was killed on Friday documenting Afghan-Taliban clashes near the Pakistan border

Pulitzer-winning Reuters photojournalist Danish Siddiqui, who was killed on Friday documenting Afghan-Taliban clashes near the Pakistan border, covered war zones and crises from Iraq to Hong Kong to Nepal. 

An alumnus of Delhi’s Jamia Millia Islamia, Siddiqui’s powerful photographs recorded the Rohingya refugee crisis, drew world attention to India’s devastating Covid second wave, and turned the lens on the communal violence in northeast Delhi in 2020. 

Here’s a snapshot of his works.
