A Russian court rejected the latest appeal by US journalist Evan Gershkovich against his pre-trial detention on spying charges

reut.rs/3Wbgf12

Quick Glance: Moscow Court Upholds Extension of Detention for Reporter Evan Gershkovich

Following the rejection of Evan Gershkovich's appeal, a reporter for the Wall Street Journal, he will remain in custody on espionage charges until at least late June.

Detained in late March 2023 during a reporting trip, the 32-year-old US citizen has spent over a year in prison, with his detention being regularly prolonged and his appeals being turned down.

Experts suggest that Moscow might be leveraging jailed Americans as leverage in the escalating tensions between the US and Russia due to the Kremlin's military operation in Ukraine.

Gershkovich's arrest marks the first time since September 1986 that an American reporter has been detained in Russia on espionage charges, when Nicholas Daniloff, a Moscow correspondent for U.S. News and World Report, was apprehended by the KGB.

Quick Glance: Russian Attack Causes Destruction of TV Tower in Kharkiv

A television tower in Kharkiv was ripped in two by a Russian missile strike on Monday, described by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as a deliberate attempt by Moscow to make the second largest city in Ukraine uninhabitable.

Zelenskyy briefed US President Joe Biden about the airstrike that occurred shortly before their conversation.

The Service for State Special Communications reported partial damage to the tower's structure, resulting in a temporary loss of television signal. Efforts are underway to restore it, with residents advised to use cable, online TV, or radio if they lack a digital TV signal.

Quick Glance: Senate prepares for final passage of Ukraine-Israel aid bill

The House-passed supplemental funding package to provide long-awaited aid to Ukraine, Israel, and other allies was advanced by the Senate on Tuesday to prepare the legislation for final passage.

Senators voted 80-19 to proceed with the $95 billion foreign aid package, encompassing funds for humanitarian aid, national security items, and potentially a TikTok ban.

Active discussions continue among senators to reach an agreement on amendments for a swift final vote on the four-bill package, with talks hitting a snag over the weekend.

It is widely anticipated that regardless of the outcome of such negotiations, the legislation will receive support from nearly all Democrats and about half of the Republican conference, surpassing the 60 votes needed for approval.

Judge Juan Merchan will determine whether to penalize Donald Trump for repeated breaches of the gag order preventing the former president from publicly discussing witnesses or jurors in the criminal hush money case.

Prosecutors are urging Merchan to impose a $1,000 fine on Trump for each violation and to caution him that future infractions can result in not just additional fines but also potential incarceration.

Responding to Trump's social media activity, Cohen, a pivotal prosecution witness, accused Trump of desperation on Twitter, with Trump's legal team justifying his responses as campaign-related.

Regarding the gag order infringements, the jury will not be presented with arguments. Merchan specified that if the arguments are not wrapped up by 11 a.m., they will pick up the discussion on the infringements at a later time.

Quick Glance: Heads of anti-government bloc report delays and harassment upon returning to Moldova

Leaders of a new pro-Russian electoral bloc opposed to Moldovan President Maia Sandu's plans to seek European Union membership said they were deliberately delayed and harassed at the airport on their return home.

Opposition parties, meeting at the weekend in Moscow, announced the formation of a bloc dubbed 'Victory' to take part in a presidential election and a referendum on EU membership set for October.

The parties rallied around the fugitive pro-Russian business magnate Ilan Shor, who was sentenced last year in absentia to 15 years in prison for mass fraud.

Sandu criticized Moscow's incursion into Ukraine and identified Russia and corruption as the two main threats to her country nestled between Ukraine and EU member Romania.
