Russia’s Federal Security Service, the FSB, said Thursday that it had detained a Wall Street Journal reporter, Evan Gershkovich, a U.S. citizen assigned to the newspaper’s Moscow bureau, and had opened an “espionage” case against him.
Earlier, independent Russian journalist Dmitry Kolezev had reported the arrest, citing two sources in Yekaterinburg.
In its statement, the FSB accused Gershkovich of gathering information about a Russian military enterprise but did not cite any evidence.
