You may have been reading our reporter Evan Gershkovich's coverage of the war in Ukraine and the situation in Russia over the past year. As you know, Evan was detained by Russia on Wednesday and accused of spying. The Wall Street Journal vehemently denies these accusations. We stand with our colleague and invite you to read this profile of him, which is free to read.

Why don't you have Daddy Murdoch ask Putin to let him go? You Newscorp degenerates are practically an official propaganda arm of the Kremlin as it is, I'm sure russia would let them go after they're reminded this is a case of friendly fire.

Is there any way for him to be released? What options does the journal have to get him back?

If Russia is targeting journalists for political reasons, does this mean journalists must leave Russia for their safety?
