‘It’s not our job to make photos that are easy to look at’: the female photographers exposing the cost of conflict in 2024
Hostilities are taking place in more than 170 locations across the globe and women are suffering the effects more than at any time since the second world war. Here, female photojournalists reveal personal stories of life under fire
For Lynsey Addario, a celebrated conflict photographer, covering war in 2024 was all about a six-year-old girl from Ukraine. For most of the summer, Addario followed Sonya and her family as they navigated the final stages of her short life in a hospice in Chernivtsi, western Ukraine.
