Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich was sentenced to 16 years in prison in Russia on Friday after being convicted on espionage charges. The U.S. and Gershkovich's employer have denounced the charges as fabricated. Gershkovich was arrested in March 2023 during a reporting trip to Yekaterinburg and has been held in detention ever since. The trial was held behind closed doors and the conviction comes amid heightened tensions between Russia and the West. The U.S. has designated Gershkovich as wrongfully detained and is working for his release. While discussions about a prisoner exchange are ongoing, it is unclear when or if Gershkovich will be freed.
