Associated Press (AP) photographer Nick Ut presented his iconic photo 'Napalm Girl' to the Vietnamese Women’s Museum on May 6.

The photo was among a series of five images presented by Nick Ut to the museum. They were taken on June 8, 1972 in Trang Bang District, Tay Ninh Province featuring terrified Vietnamese children, including nine-year-old Kim Phuc, in the centre running down the street after their village was set ablaze with napalm.

Nick also presented the museum with a camera he used while working as a war correspondent in Vietnam at the time.

‘Napalm Girl’ captures the hardship and horror of the war conducted by the US in Vietnam, helping change the world’s look at the Vietnam War and boost the anti-war movement in the US.
