Pulitzer Prize-winning Indian photojournalist Danish Siddiqui has been killed in Afghanistan, said the country's ambassador in Delhi. The 41-year-old, who was chief photographer for Reuters news agency in India, was on assignment when he died. He was embedded with a convoy of Afghan forces that was ambushed by Taliban militants near a key border post with Pakistan, according to reports. It is unclear how many others died in the attack. Afghanistan's ambassador to India, Farid Mamundzay, said he was deeply disturbed by the news of "the killing of a friend". Based out of Mumbai, Siddiqui worked with Reuters for more than a decade.

In 2018, he won the Pulitzer Prize in feature photography. He won it alongside colleague Adnan Abidi and five others for their work documenting the violence faced by Myanmar's minority Rohingya community. Recently, his photos of mass funerals held at the peak of India's devastating second wave went viral and won him global praise and recognition. "While I enjoy covering news stories - from business to politics to sports - what I enjoy most is capturing the human face of a breaking story," Siddiqui had told Reuters. Siddiqui was covering the clashes in Kandahar region, as the US withdraws its forces from Afghanistan ahead of an 11 September deadline set by President Joe Biden. The Taliban - a fundamentalist Islamic militia - controlled Afghanistan from the mid-90s until the US invasion in 2001. The group has been accused of grave human rights and cultural abuses. With foreign troops withdrawing after 20 years, the Taliban are rapidly retaking territory across the country, sparking fears of a potential civil war.

They don't care if you're press. This is why you don't embed ever especially there.
This is better than being taken hostage though and becoming a different kind of content seen on here after how many years with them? 😱

Theres more than one. John Cantlie, taken in Syria. They made him do a bunch of videos. I think he may be dead. There's also John McCarthy, Lebanon captured, held 5 yrs. 🤷‍♀️

[3leggedtablewithnoleg]

sometimes they do, bc they want their message out or to show off

[dwdays]

Fuck him! Bye Mr. Patel. A billion more to go!

 

[GoreErectus]

that'll learn him.

They probably don't care, but at the same time, I can't understand why they have such immense evil in their hearts, just like drug cartels

Danish was biased with his journalism. He twisted stories particularly of crimes committed by Muslims and manipulated the nature of the stories published. Got exactly what he deserved if you ask me.

You people are as worse as Taliban and Isis...if that's your level of thinking.

Not really But you can keep telling yourself that!
