The 2008 Pulitzer Prize winners were announced a short while ago, and Adrees Latif of Reuters was awarded the $10,000 2008 Pulitzer Prize in the Breaking News Photography for his photograph of a Japanese videographer, fatally wounded during a street demonstration in Myanmar.
Mahmud Hams of Agence France-Presse was also nominated as finalist in this category for his picture of a missile, caught in mid-air, as it falls on a target in the Gaza Strip while young Palestinians scramble for safety.
