@abc7chicago: The Wall Street Journal newsroom erupted in applause following the announcement of the release of its journalist Evan Gershkovich, on Thursday. Gershkovich was arrested by Russian authorities in March 2023 for espionage, a charge he and US officials have strongly denied. Gershkovich was one of 24 people who were released on Thursday, as part of a large prisoner swap between the US, Russia and multiple other countries. #news #evangershkovich #wsj
