Please find time to hear my colleagues talk about Moscow bureau reporter Evan Gershkovich, a talented and dedicated journalist who was detained simply for doing his job. #IStandWithEvan @WSJ

The @WSJ's in-depth coverage of toxicity in workplaces this year (FDIC, World Economic Forum, Bank of America) continues with this jaw-dropping story about Saudi Arabia's Neom, the world's biggest construction project, from @RoryWSJ wsj.com/business/the-worlds-…

Today marks 14 months since our @WSJ colleague and friend Evan Gershkovich was imprisoned in Russia. His arrest is an affront to anyone who values a free society. Read about Evan here & thank you for continuing to spread the word time.com/6852858/evan-gershk… #IStandWithEvan #FreeEvan

Friday will mark one year since our friend and @WSJ colleague Evan Gershkovich was wrongfully detained in Russia. On Sunday, I ran a half-marathon to mark this outrageous anniversary. Today, we run in locations across the world. #IRunForEvan #IStandWithEvan

48 WEEKS. Our friend and @WSJ colleague, Evan Gershkovich, has been in a Russian prison for almost 11 months—in his cell 23 hours a day. For no crime at all. He's a journalist, and he deserve to be free. #IStandWithEvan #FreeEvan

Seeing Evan’s spirit shining through in such horrendous circumstances is an inspiration to us all. It’s an absolute outrage that he has spent more than ten months of his life in prison. We will not rest until he’s released. (Photo Alexander Zemlianichenko,AP) #IStandWithEvan @WSJ

32 WEEKS. Think about how much has happened in your life since March. Now think about spending that in a Russian prison.
Pls help us call for the release of our wrongfully detained @WSJ colleague Evan Gershkovich. Bring him home. #IStandWithEvan #FreeEvan #JournalismIsNotACrime

It's 224 days since our @WSJ colleague and friend Evan Gershkovich was detained in Russia. Thinking about everything that's happened since late March makes you realize how much has missed, and how much he IS missed by us, his family and friends. #IStandWithEvan #IRunForEvan

Happy birthday to our colleague @evangershkovich, who is marking his 32nd bday as he sits in Moscow’s Lefortovo Prison.
This pic is from a home video that his parents shared when he was first detained. Praying they can celebrate his next bday with him in person 🙏🏼#IStandWithEvan

"I think it keeps Evan's spirits up to know that we are working on his behalf." @WSJ World Coverage Chief Gordon Fairclough (@gefairclough) speaks to @CNN about WSJ reporter Evan Gershkovich on the six month mark of Evan's detention. #IStandWithEvan

This time last year @evangershkovich and I were reporting some of the most important stories about Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
This year, he’s watching the seasons change through prison bars. We miss him, he deserves to be free #ISTANDWITHEVAN bit.ly/48rvqXD

A classic Ahed from @NuhaDolby with fabulous quotes. "Sindy was quite demure, not flashy. She didn’t have a big bust.”

Evan Gershkovich’s friends and colleagues are reading out his work for 24-hours, demonstrating that even a day detained for doing your job is unacceptable. #IStandWithEvan
