Congrats to EPA Images staff photographer Mohammed Saber who has been recognised as a finalist for the 2026 World Press Photo of the Year for his work in Gaza.
Saber received the runner-up distinction for a powerful image (supplied to PAN above) depicting Palestinians climbing onto an aid truck near a food distribution point in Zikim, northern Gaza, in July 2025, which captures the severity of the humanitarian crisis and widespread food insecurity in the Palestinian strip.
“The Zikim point was one of the most difficult and dangerous places I have witnessed in my coverage, where hunger and danger were intertwined at every moment, ” said Mohammed Saber. “At that point, people came daily hoping to get a bag of flour, ” he recalled. “Some returned with some food, some returned empty-handed, and others returned injured or never returned at all due to stampedes or gunfire.”
