The New York Times won four Pulitzer Prize awards on Monday, including for reporting on Sudan’s civil war and the failures of the United States in the war in Afghanistan, as well as photographs of the moments surrounding the attempted assassination of Donald J. Trump in Pennsylvania.

The Times also won in collaboration with the The Baltimore Banner, a nonprofit news outlet, for an investigation into the deadly opioid crisis.

The New Yorker won three awards, for commentary and feature photography as well as for its investigative podcast, “In The Dark.”

Started in 1917, the Pulitzer Prizes are presented annually by Columbia University for excellence in journalism and letters. ProPublica won the award for public service, considered the most prestigious of the Pulitzers, for its coverage of the impact of state abortion bans across the country. The reporters Kavitha Surana, Lizzie Presser and Cassandra Jaramillo and the photographer Stacy Kranitz used death certificates and hospital records to uncover how the bans had directly led to preventable deaths of mothers.

The staff of The Washington Post won the prize for breaking news reporting for their coverage of the attempted assassination of Mr. Trump at his rally in Butler, Pa., in July, which incorporated audio and visual forensics along with traditional reporting.

Ann Telnaes, formerly of The Washington Post, was awarded a prize for illustrated reporting and commentary. Ms. Telnaes, a cartoonist, resigned from The Post in January after the publication rejected a cartoon depicting its owner, Jeff Bezos. The Pulitzer board credited her with “delivering piercing commentary on powerful people and institutions with deftness, creativity — and a fearlessness that led to her departure from the news organization after 17 years.”

Reuters was awarded the investigative reporting prize for “Fentanyl Express,” a series that examined the drug trade behind America’s opioid crisis. The investigation showed how easy it was to obtain the chemicals needed to make fentanyl from China and how the packages evaded customs inspections in Mexico and the United States.

The national reporting award went to the staff of The Wall Street Journal for its coverage of Elon Musk, the world’s richest man. The coverage revealed details about Mr. Musk’s influence in conservative politics, use of illegal drugs and conversations with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Azam Ahmed, Christina Goldbaum and Matthieu Aikins of The New York Times won the explanatory reporting award for their investigation into the consequences of the war in Afghanistan and what the United States left behind when it pulled out. The reporting uncovered a systematic campaign of forced disappearances by an Afghan general backed by the U.S. military.

Declan Walsh and the staff of The New York Times won the award for international reporting for their coverage of the ongoing civil war in Sudan, including revealing the role of the United Arab Emirates in the conflict and its devastating human toll.

Doug Mills of The New York Times won the breaking news photography prize for his photos capturing the attempted assassination of President Trump last year, including an image in which a bullet can be seen.

Alissa Zhu, Nick Thieme and Jessica Gallagher of The Baltimore Banner and The New York Times were awarded the local reporting prize for an investigative series that showed the sheer scale of Baltimore’s fentanyl crisis and found that the city had become the drug overdose capital of the United States. It is the first Pulitzer Prize for The Banner, a nonprofit newsroom that started in 2022. The work was done in collaboration with The New York Times’s Local Investigations Fellowship.

The feature writing prize went to Mark Warren, a contributor for Esquire magazine, for “Right-Wing Media and the Death of an Alabama Pastor: An American Tragedy,” which examined the suicide death of a Baptist pastor in a small town after a website exposed his online life.

Mosab Abu Toha, a contributor to The New Yorker, won the commentary award for deeply personal and reported essays documenting the experience in the Gaza Strip during the continuing war with Israel.

Moises Saman, a contributor to The New Yorker, was awarded the feature photography prize for his images in Syria after the fall of the Assad regime, including black-and-white photographs of the notorious Sednaya detention facility. The staff of The New Yorker was awarded the audio reporting prize for the “In the Dark” podcast which investigated the murder of 24 Iraqi civilians by U.S. Marines during the Iraq War.

The prize for criticism was given to Alexandra Lange, a contributing writer to Bloomberg CityLab, for her writing about public spaces for families and how architecture and design can help communities flourish.

Raj Mankad, Sharon Steinmann, Lisa Falkenberg and Leah Binkovitz of The Houston Chronicle were awarded the editorial writing prize for a series about hazardous rail crossings and blocked intersections in the city that demanded action from lawmakers.

In the prizes for arts and letters, the novel “James,” by Percival Everett, was awarded the fiction prize. “James” reimagines the story of Huckleberry Finn from the perspective of the enslaved character Jim.

“Purpose,” by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins, won the drama prize. The play follows a reckoning within a prominent Black family with ties to the civil rights movement.

The history award was given to “Native Nations: A Millennium in North America,” by Kathleen DuVal, and “Combee: Harriet Tubman, the Combahee River Raid, and Black Freedom during the Civil War,” by Edda L. Fields-Black.

The biography prize went to the author Jason Roberts for “Every Living Thing: The Great and Deadly Race to Know All Life,” which is a double biography of the 18th-century scientists Carl Linnaeus and Georges-Louis de Buffon and their attempts to taxonomize the world.

“Feeding Ghosts: A Graphic Memoir,” by Tessa Hulls, was awarded the autobiography prize. The book illustrates three generations of the author’s Chinese family history and the trauma handed down. “To the Success of Our Hopeless Cause: The Many Lives of the Soviet Dissident Movement,” by Benjamin Nathans, was awarded the general nonfiction prize.

The poetry prize went to “New and Selected Poems,” by Marie Howe, a collection of more than four decades of poetry that observes everyday life. “Sky Islands,” by Susie Ibarra, was awarded the prize in music. The composition, which was inspired by the rainforests of Luzon in the Philippines, premiered in July at the Asia Society in New York.

The Pulitzer Prize Board also awarded a special citation to Chuck Stone, a pioneering Black journalist who covered the civil rights movement and was a legendary columnist at the Philadelphia Daily News. Mr. Stone also co-founded the National Association of Black Journalists. He died in 2014 at 89.
