FY2024 ニュースで学ぶ現代英語（５／２１）ガザ報道 ピュリツァー賞各部門で受賞

Israel-Hamas conflict reporting awarded Pulitzer Prizes

Journalists covering the conflict between Israel and Hamas have been recognized with what are considered to be the most prestigious awards in U.S. journalism.

The Pulitzer Prize Board on Monday announced the prizes for works published last year.

It honored journalists covering Gaza with a special citation.

It says an extraordinary number of them have died in an effort to tell the stories of Palestinians in the enclave.

Reuters news agency staff won the Breaking News Photography prize.

It was for documenting the surprise attack by Hamas on southern Israel in October as well as the first weeks of Israel's devastating assault on Gaza.

The board calls the photos raw and urgent.

And a team from The New York Times took home the International Reporting prize.

The board says it was in part for coverage showing how Israeli officials dismissed the Hamas attack plan that they obtained well before the group carried it out.
