New York Times Wins 3 Polk Awards 

 Lynsey Addario of The Times won the photojournalism award for a photo that captured the horror in Ukraine. In the photo, the bodies of a Ukrainian mother, her two children and a family friend lay on the ground after they were killed by Russian mortar fire while trying to flee Ukraine. The citation for the award noted that Ms. Addario “dove for cover as the shell landed and then took the gruesome photo on instinct.”
