Arsenal fans tonight — and all through this year — showing big love for The Wall Street Journal reporter and massive gooner Evan Gershkovich, unjustly jailed for a year in Russia.

We know he sees this and it lifts his spirits.

Last Friday, to mark a full year that Evan Gershkovich has spent in jail, we stepped out with friends and colleagues in Berlin. Thank you to Bel Trew for covering:

A Russian court has extended pre-trial detention of RFE/RL journalist Alsu Kurmasheva, who holds US & Russian citizenships. She's charged with violating foreign agents law & spreading false info about Russia's army. Her family & employer insist charges are politically motivated.

There are so many things Evan should have been able to do over the past year, so many trips he should’ve taken, so many stories he should’ve covered.

A beautiful piece by ⁦Eliot Brown⁩ about the year we’ve all had — and Evan hasn’t. 365 days today. wsj.com/world/russia/e…

Today marks one year of American journalist Evan Gershkovich’s wrongful detention in Russia.

As I told Evan’s parents, we'll never give up hope.

To Evan, to Paul, and all Americans held hostage or wrongfully detained abroad: We will never stop working to bring you home.

Journalism is not a crime. must immediately release The Wall Street Journal reporter Evan . His detention is unacceptable. Journalists must not become pawns in perfidious political maneuvers or the Kremlin’s political bargaining chips.

A year of Evan Gershkovich's life has been stolen

A year of weddings, of spikeball on the beach, of beers in Berlin, of New Year w/ mayo-filled salad; of reporting on monumental Russian changes

Today I had the honor to write about my friend Evan in WSJ:

Here's the WSJ's front page today

Evan Gershkovich has been a Russian captive for a year. He's a caring friend, a brilliant colleague and an innocent man.

It's beyond time to let him go.

Free Evan.

Get shot at, blown up and unjustly detained because you do your job well and go where others won’t.

Cover war like a champ because you know your stuff.

Break news regularly because you’re well-sourced.

And then get laid off.

This Easter let us pray for the The Wall Street Journal's Evan Gershkovich, and for press freedom around the world. After being arrested in Russia one year ago, Evan is still in pre-trial detention, confined to a small cell – with his detention having recently been extended.

Good Friday will mark…

Evan was my editorial assistant at The New York Times — a young journalist of integrity. It’s disgusting that he has been unjustly imprisoned for a year this month
