Reuters photographer Damir Sagolj has had a busy year. Based in Beijing, China, his work took him across Asia, covering crime, sports, politics, protest, daily life, military events, and much more. By my count, the Reuters news agency distributed more than 4,250 photos taken by Sagolj in 2016. He covered events in China, North Korea, Mongolia, Brazil (for the 2016 Olympics), and more. To end the year, Sagolj spent much of October in the Philippines, covering the widespread campaign of violence tied to that government’s crackdown on drugs

The death of the North Korean leader Kim Jong-il comes not only at a time of political uncertainty, but also against a hunger crisis caused by storms and floods. This year, the Reuters photographer Damir Sagolj was part of a group of journalists invited by the government – itself a rare step — to document the emergency facing the country’s farm region. As Lens republishes his images today from a post in October, we asked him for an update.
Damir Sagolj, a Bangkok-based Reuters photographer, was among a group of journalists invited last week by North Korea’s Economy and Trade Information Center to document the food crisis in the country’s farm belt. North Korea has appealed for food aid after a harsh winter and a series of summer floods and storms, but so far, only 30 percent of a United Nations aid target has been met.
