Evan gave a thumbs-up when asked by the press how he was. And later shared this moment with his lawyers after the judge announced the decision. The legal team said they held out hope the next hearing would be the last.

I got a reply today from Evan Gershkovich in Lefortovo prison via @polinaivanovva and Friends of Evan. It’s dated July 25 and contains his hallmark wit and modesty. It will be 18 weeks tomorrow since his wrongful detention in Russia. He should be back with friends and family.
