to help you understand what it's actually worth. then they auction it to their network of professional buyers. get more for your jewelry with worthy .com president mike pence joins wolf blitzer cnn primetime tonight at nine. hello i'm alex marquardt in washington. thank you so much for joining us. we do begin today with a tragedy in kentucky and a community in mourning. nine soldiers are now dead after the two blackhawk helicopters that they were on crashed in southwestern kentucky . the army says that the helicopters were on a training mission and that the soldiers were using night vision goggles
10:01 am
when the accident happened. kentucky's governor rushed to the soldier's duty station, which is called fort campbell and had this to say this morning. today is a tough and a tragic day for kentucky. for the four campbell and for the 101st. the nine individuals. we lost our children of god. they will be mourned and missed by their families. by their communities. we've also heard from the secretary of defense lloyd austin, who said in a statement . my heart goes out to the families of these service members and to the members of the 101st airborne division who bravely and proudly serve our country every day each and every day. i'm saddened by this tragic loss, and i am working with army leadership to make sure our troops and their families received the care that they need in the wake. of this accident. cnn's dianne gallagher is live at fort campbell. diane what more are you learning about this tragic accident? so alex. there
10:02 am
is an aircraft safety team that is on their way from fort rucker , alabama to investigate what caused this crash, according to the deputy, commanding the deputy commander of the 101st this morning, there were two blackhawks one aircraft had five service members on it. the other had four service members on it. that crashed last night just around 11 p.m. eastern time over trade county, kentucky. it is a neighboring, more rural county here to fort campbell right over katie's kentucky, he said that they were running a quote. i'm so sorry. here they were running. essentially these routine training missions. it was a multi formation. we were told that there were four different aircraft there in the training mission initially, but that one of them had stop up to refuel and another was ahead of the two that crash they were using night goggles. these were also medevac variants of the blackhawks. now they say that
10:03 am
they may not know immediately. what happened. witnesses describe hearing like a pop and seeing those helicopters fall there in trade county, telling a radio station there that it was just like a boom after that, pop we asked if there was any sort of alert or signal given any sort of s. o s. if you will, letting them know something was wrong ahead of time, they said they did not have any indication that there was anything radioed in before the crash happened, alex, we do expect them to look for a computer data on these aircraft, essentially much like when we talk about a black box on a plane something they have something similar to that in these helicopters that they anticipate can give them good information to it. we do know that that helicopter. that was a how the aircraft that was ahead of the two that crashed, was able to provide information to the authorities here to let them know that something had happened . there were authorities from all over the area that came to respond to this. and of course, the commanding general, offering his condolences and talking
10:04 am
about how difficult this was for the base here. i would like to express our deepest sympathies to the families of our fallen soldiers. this is a truly tragic loss for our families. our division. and fort campbell. and our number one priority is caring for the families and the soldiers within our combat aviation brigade. you mentioned. the governor was here this morning, offering his support as well as his condolences. alex this is a it's a sprawling base . it is full of members of the u. s. military specifically the u. s army, and they said that they are working still on the next of kin notifications because, of course, there are those who passed away who may not have next of kin that are here in the united states or across the country. horrible accident for that tight knit community day and gallagher at fort campbell in kentucky, thank you very much for that report. today, there is an alarming new development in the already extremely tense relationship
10:05 am
between the united states and russia. russia has just arrested american journalist evan gersh covic and charged him with espionage, which is a us citizen . he has been working as a reporter at the wall street journal's moscow bureau. he is the first journalist us journalist since 1986 who russia has been charged with spying. cnn's natasha bertrand joins us now, natasha, the by administration learned about this yesterday. we're told they only just put out an official reaction. so what are they saying about this arrest? yeah, alex, we are told that the state department actually learned about it from the wall street journal who informed the administration that their reporter had been detained by russian authorities. but we are getting kind of a flurry of statements now from the white house from the state department about the detention of this journalist i saying essentially that they are deeply concerned about it that they have been in touch both with his family and also with the wall street journal on this and also importantly, that the state department has been in touch directly with the russian
10:06 am
government about his detention. and of course, that is directly contradicting something that the russian government has said, which is that they had received no inquiries from the u. s government. the us now directly pushing back on that, saying that they have submitted multiple inquiries through the consular services. they're trying to get information on when how and why this reporter was detained there now we also are getting additional information from the national security council coordinator for strategic communications, john kirby told reporters just a short time ago that he does not know whether this detention was in retaliation for the us charging a g r u operative, a russian spy essentially just last week. for entering the u. s illegally and for impersonating a foreigner someone he wasn't pretending to be someone. he wasn't. however it is still too early at this point to say whether russia is essentially trying to leverage this reporter's detention for another prisoner swap, so we'll just have to wait and see what
10:07 am
happens here. but the u. s still trying to gather information about why he was detained and whether they can get any answers on when he might be released. as of right now, he is going to be in detention. in until the end of may. alex one of the major questions whether this was a tick for tat, natasha bertrand, thank you very much. this is very much the beginning of what could be a long saga. let's continue this conversation now with julia yoffie, a founding partner and washington correspondent for puck. who is i should say russian born and has a very deep knowledge of russia . julia thank you so much for joining me today, and i think this hits particularly close to home for you and i we met years ago as young reporters in moscow like gersh, covic, and now we have these accusations of espionage, the kremlin saying that he was caught red handed. what does evan gerst ravitch now face with russia's legal system? well, he faces up to 20 years in a russian penal colony. uh and for a young man who's 31. that
10:08 am
is his entire youth gone. unless obviously some kind of deal is reached. you mentioned my background and it's particularly relevant and evans case as well . although he was born in the us his parents were immigrants from the soviet union, jewish immigrants and there is a sense in moscow, especially in the foreign ministry and in the kremlin. the people of this kind of background like my background , uh, they're particularly sensitive to and they're particularly sensitive to our criticism. they feel that there it's a different kind of let level of betrayal. when you leave the soviet union. you leave the country, you move abroad and you basically lob grenades at the at your homeland at your motherland from abroad. um and i think that certainly does not help evans case uh, those of us who had roots in the soviet union had bigger targets on our backs for sure. and like
10:09 am
you, he speaks russian. which of course, makes you much very, very strong reporters when it comes to covering russia, american paul whelan. he is, of course still in russian prison, convicted on espionage charges, and i was speaking with our russian colleagues. andre sold that off earlier today, who told me he thinks that russia will start to bank in his words bank, american and possibly european prisoners for future exchanges. do you agree? absolutely and i think they've already been doing that for quite a while. unfortunately for the last couple of years, and it seems they're crossing ever brighter, redder lines you and i both know from when we reported there that there are rules written rules and then the much more important , unwritten, unspoken rules about what will get you in the most trouble and slightly less trouble, etcetera. who is touchable who isn't and you and i both know that when we would come back to the states and americans would ask us well, aren't you scared for your
10:10 am
safety? we both knew that it was actually our russian colleagues who are in danger. we were protected by our american passports. in some ways, we were untouchable and that rule unspoken on written is now gone out the window like pretty much every other rule in russia. there is from what i understand from speaking to people there a sense said. anything goes when it comes to the security services. anything goes. there are no rules, and it creates a make sense of instability and fear. but even at a time when the relationship was warmer, like when you and i were there, which is over a decade ago, the fsb made it clear to foreign journalists that they were being watched. and it's something that that you reported on at the time. yeah they did that to foreign journalists to foreign diplomats. they would you know, break into their apartments, rearranged the furniture still rugs, etcetera, just to let them
10:11 am
know that they were not at home that they were on somebody else's turf, their turf that they were in charge, and they were completely at their mercy and staying in russia at their pleasure, but it didn't result in physical harm. it didn't result in arrests. it is it resulted in a couple of experts. oceans but that was the extent of it. this is a terrifying new low and a terrifying new development. um. and it's frankly why i have been scared to go to russia since the outbreak of the war because of exactly this risk because, you know, everybody said well, but they haven't arrested american journalists and i would say not yet and unfortunately, here we are. and since the outbreak of the war, we have seen many independent journalists flee the country. many of them are trying to keep covering russia and the war in ukraine from abroad, and it's your point there has been protection for international journalists who have to be
10:12 am
accredited. many of those international journalists left and then have come back. so now seeing american journalists being arrested, charged with espionage. what kind of chilling effect you think that's going to have on this coverage of russia? and what is a very, very critical time? i agree with you. it's one of the most important stories in the world to be covering from inside russia and the fact that there is almost nobody there now makes the coverage suffer makes russia more of a black box makes russian decision making and russian public reaction much more inscrutable. um as you said , american news organizations have been kind of tiptoeing back in. but from what i've heard in light of this news organizations like the new york times are pulling people out of russia again because it's not safe and to your earlier point about banking hostages. i've been talking to people in moscow this morning. and from what i understand it isn't just about a tip for tat. for this year. are you officer? this fsb officers
10:13 am
in prison somewhere in the west . in part, it's a sense of we no longer care about the american reaction. they think america rules the world, including the internal international court of criminal justice at the hague. and that in some ways, this is payback for the arrest warrant that they issued for vladimir putin that the gloves are off. we no longer care. it's on it's on well, very scary times for our colleagues in russia, julia fee thank you so much for joining us today and for sharing your thoughts really appreciate it. thank you, alex. people in raymond, minnesota, are now clear to return to their homes after a train derailment involving hazardous materials. transportation secretary pete buttigieg says that those materials included ethanol, which led to a fire. this comes nearly two months after a train carrying dangerous chemicals derailed and east palestine, ohio cnn's gabe cohen is live with the story. gabe do we know
10:14 am
what caused this derailment? no, alex, we don't at this point, the ntsb has sent a team to the scene of federal investigators. so they're going to be looking at that in the days and weeks ahead. you touch on that major development just in the last few minutes, and that is that the sheriff's office announced that the evacuation order in raymond has been lifted, which means people in this small town population less than 1000. people can finally return home after they were frantically told to flee overnight. we also heard from governor tim walz in the past hour or so. yelled the press conference and said that there were no reported injuries at the scene. no toxic exposures at this point and no impact to drinking water. but look, this is still very much an active scene. you can see some of the images on your screen, the flames that have been burning for hours. we know that this was a train carrying corn syrup and ethanol. and, according to the epa of four cars containing ethanol actually ruptured during
10:15 am
the derailment. that's what caught fire and created this scene and for additional cars can gaining ethanol may also released so there are first responders they're monitoring for that ethanol, of course, is this highly flammable chemical that exposure can cause coughing , dizziness, other issues, but obviously first responders felt it was safe enough for people to return home. alex just extraordinary scenes there. gabe cohen. thank you. pope francis has thanked well wishers worldwide as he recovers from a serious health scare. we'll have an update on his condition live from rome, plus new evidence revealed which shows at fox executives knew trump's election lies were nonsense and potentially even criminal. and taken by a killer far too soon. now we are learning how families plan to honor the young lives that were tragically taken in the nashville school shooting. we'll be right back. what dodoes

10:18 am
about your company? well, besides being the full service replacement window division of anderson where the company people tend to call when they're particular about their home. they don't want just any old window or any oil installer, so your standards for installers are pretty high. right brian, you can have the best window or door in the world, and if it's not installed correctly, it's gonna fail. so we don't hire these jack of all trades installers that do gutters and siding on the side window installation teams. do our windows year in year out, and i've done thousands of them. anytime. a homeowner has to deal with multiple home improvement companies get stuck in the blame game with other companies. if there's an issue, the manufacturer blames the installer. the installer blames the manufacturer with us. there's no finger pointing or blaming each other. we're both the installer and the manufacturer. 10 is it easy for a homeowner to get a price? very easy. we'll come out to your house will assess your current patio door windows, and then we'll give you an exact price that's good for an entire year, said that's great information. thank you. renewal by anderson's

10:20 am
after spending the night in a hospital with a respiratory infection. we're told that this morning he was working from the hospital in rome. his twitter account posted this quote. i am touched by the many messages received in these hours and i express my gratitude for the closeness and prayer. the vatican says that the 86 year old pontiff had been complaining of breathing difficulties in recent days. they did also emphasized that his illness is not covid 19. cnn's daily. gallagher is in rome. delia what more can you tell us about the pope's condition and the treatment that he's undergoing? well, alex. important news out of the vatican today is that the situation is improving. they say that he slept well overnight that his clinical picture is progressively improving and that he will continue treatments here for the next few days. they haven't given us any details about what exactly those treatments are. let me give you an idea of where the pope is right now. if you can see behind
10:21 am
me on the top floor there, there's about five windows that are shuttered down with white shutters. those are the people rooms at the gemelli hospital, as many and the vatican also told us that he had breakfast this morning he was able to read the newspapers. and indeed do some work, so obviously giving a sense of reassurance, especially considering the uncertainty. alex of yesterday's news with the problems that they said the pope had been complaining about not being able to breathe. now the pope is 86 years old. he also has a history of respiratory issue when he was 21 , part of his lung was taken out for respiratory illness. so he is particularly vulnerable to this situation. we also know he has other health issues mobility problem with his knee. he was here in the summer of 2020 21 for 10 days to have surgery for diverticulitis, and they had to remove some of his colon. hopefully his stay this time won't be that long. alex. there's easter week coming up.
10:22 am
here starting on sunday, palm sunday at the vatican a very busy time of year for the pope, so we'll see how he progresses in the next few days. alex 86 year old with a very busy schedule, who likes to be in the crowds daily gallagher in rome. thank you very much for that report, turning now to nashville and a community that has been gutted by monday's mass shooting at a christian grade school, which left three children and three faculty members dead plans for the first two funerals have been released tomorrow nine year old evelyn dick house will be laid to rest. that's her on the left in that photo. her family wants people to wear pink and bright spring colors as opposed to the traditional black. they did release a statement saying, we are overwhelmed by the outpouring of love and support from family, friends and the community. it is comforting and uplifting. for all of us. please continue to respect our privacy. as we mourn the loss of our sweet evelyn that on saturday, the funeral for her schoolmate
10:23 am
halle scruggs will be held. halle was also nine years old, according to a statement from the covenant school. as that morning process continues. audio has now just been released of a key emergency called made on the day of the attack. cnn's carlos suarez is in nashville. he has been reporting on this for several days. now. carlos tell us about this call and the timeline. well, alex. the exact quote here is i don't want it on my conscience. those are the words of having rihanna patent. she is a former teammate and friend of the 28 year old shooter on monday, a little bit before the shooting happened. a patent received a instagram message from the shooter that said, in part, quote, something bad is about to happen. now after patent receives that message on instagram, she calls a suicide prevention hotline at some point along that conversation, or at some point
10:24 am
in that conversation, patent is told that she really needs to call the sheriff's department. she finally gets ahold of someone at the sheriff's department and then is told she really needs to call a non emergency number. so this all happens before the shooting happens. and at 10 21 in the morning, she is finally able to get ahold of someone. at this non emergency number. by that time, the shooting is already underway. it is still unclear at this hour this afternoon. exactly why patent was being passed from one department to another. it's quite possible that the reason this happened is because patent really did not have a whole lot of information to pass along. she did not know the shooter's name, and she did not have an address where the shooter lived here. now is a bit of that call. i'm so far was calling received very, very weird message from a friend or instagram. i think it's like a suicidal thinking across the
10:25 am
hotline, and they told me, says, department car, you guys, but i'm his strategy. can anybody are you don't want it on my conscience. is somebody check on her? so again. patent makes that call right after receiving that message at 10 in the morning, according to her, she is not contacted by any law enforcement department here in nashville until several hours later again , alex. it's unclear why she kept being passed from one department to another of the police chief out here, was asked about this earlier in the week, and he said that even if she had called directly to dispatch right after receiving that message, they're not quite sure it would have made much of a difference. prince in terms of a response time. alex. alright carla suarez in nashville. thank you very much for that report. he called donald trump's election lies leading to january 6th pretty much a crime. so why did fox chairman rupert murdoch let his network continue to push

10:31 am
two weeks after the capital attack, murdoch emailed the ceo of fox news, writing quote, trump insisting on the election being stolen and convincing 25% of americans was a huge disservice to the country. pretty much a crime. inevitable it blew up on january. 6th now with me now is cnn's marshal cohen, who has been following these legal proceedings. marshall murdoch's email comes at the same time that fox news was continuing to push trump's election lies. what else are we learning from these documents that have just been released? yeah. another day alex and another round of fox revelations . fox wanted to keep these emails secret. they fought to keep them redacted. a judge disagreed. and that's why we can look at them now, so some of these emails go straight to the top. you already read that message from rupert murdoch. but there are other messages from top executives and staffers from that critical period after the 2020 election. showing the chaos inside the right wing network.
10:32 am
so i've got another message for you from that period. it was sent by suzanne scott, the ceo of fox news. let me give you the context of what happened before she sent this email early december. 2020 of fox news correspondent actually went on air and debunked the big lie. uh in fact, checked donald trump, saying that there was no proof of a rigged election. well after that, the ceo lashed out. this is what suzanne scott said. in this email quote, she said, this has to stop now. this is bad business, and there clearly is a lack of understanding. what is happening in these shows. the audience is furious, and we are just feeding them and material. she closed it out by saying bad for business now, alex fox news there pushback on this. they say that the ceo didn't have any issue with fact fact checking donald trump. but she was worried about was people on one show, contradicting people on another show, but you can read
10:33 am
it for yourself. there is a lot of evidence here, and this is why dominion thinks that they have a strong case. they say emails like this prove that fox didn't care about the truth and just wanted to save their bottom line. alex and this is just the latest correspondence that shows that the reporters who were actually telling the truth and pushing back got in trouble. and that people got angry with them . marshal cohen. thank you so much for that reporting. joining me now to discuss this is former federal prosecutor renato mariotti. renato thank you so much for joining me a fascinating case. uh and, of course, a potentially looming trial. we saw rupert murdoch. they're calling trump's election lies pretty much a crime in his words, even as fox news continued to push those lies and then the fox news chief, suzanne scott, warning that fact checking those lies has to stop now. so how damaging are these latest messages to fox's case? very damaging. i have to say when i saw some of the prior messages, i was wondering why fox news and not try to settle
10:34 am
this case, and i'm really still flomax by that, because they're facing very substantial damages here. the you know this is the rare case, usually defamation lawsuit is very difficult to make out. because you have to prove that the defendant knew that what they were paddling was false or had a reckless disregard for the truth. that really seems like they have the proof on that here. so we do have this potential trial coming up. fox does have a history of settling lawsuits with damaging details before they become public. so if you were representing fox, would you tell them to come to some sort of agreement some kind of deal with dominion before the trial starts, which which could be next month. absolutely i have to say i would have, i would have counseled them to reach settlement before all these emails and text messages and so forth became public and that's what really surprises me. they didn't reach a settlement. then now they face the specter of
10:35 am
some of their hosts. being on the witness stand a trial that really the fact that some of those hosts are listed on the witness list tells me the other side dominion is trying to posture and gain leverage. to force fox news into a settlement, eric knowing that they have the upper hand and renato, we've also heard from a former fox news producer. her name is abby grossberg. she filed a lawsuit against fox news. she's accused its lawyers of pressuring her into giving misleading testimony in this dominion case. and she had this to say this morning. take a listen. people said you're a lousy journalist that you that your behavior was shameful because, among other things, you had said in reply to a question that you did not believe that it was your responsibility to fact check whether or not what someone was going to say on the broadcast was telling the truth. it felt awful. i mean, it felt terrible because i knew that i was bullied, intimidated and
10:36 am

few items to pass along at the top, so i'd ask you to bear with me and then i'll be happy to get to your questions. first on behalf of secretary austin and the department of defense. i would like to offer our heartfelt condolences to the families, friends and colleagues of the nine u. s. army soldiers. a sign of the 101st airborne division, who sadly lost their lives last night when two black hawk helicopters crashed. outside of fort campbell, kentucky, according to army officials. the helicopters were performing planned night training flight operations at the time of the incident. aircraft safety team from fort rucker, alabama, will arrive later today and we'll begin an investigation and again our thoughts and prayers are with the families, units and all those affected by this tragedy. and for additional question, i'd refer you to army public affairs . separately earlier today, secretary austin met with his room service members were part of the famous 101st airborne division. critical new economic
10:43 am
data is rolling in today. the economy grew in the fourth quarter of 2022, meaning still no recession and weekly jobless claims ticked up slightly. that jobs number is one that the fed is looking at closely as it works to bring down inflation. we're also keeping a close eye on the markets, which are currently flat as investors digest all this data and monitor the banking situation. cnn's matt eagan is here to break it all down, matt first on that jobs data. if you're the fed are today's figures frustrating because they show just how resilient the labor market is, probably alex, but they can't really say that out loud. i mean, the fed is squarely focused on cooling off inflation , and a lot of economists think that they need to get a weaker jobs market to get inflation under control. but you know the jobs market is just not cooperating. it remains strong, historically strong initial jobless claims coming in at 198,000 that is up, but only
10:44 am
slightly, and it's off of low levels you can see from that chart. the trend is really in favor of workers showing that jobless claims remain very low. some context here 198,000 in the latest week. the pre covid 2019 average was 220,000. so that means despite all of these recession fears, despite the fed's historic warren inflation despite the banking crisis, this jobs market in many ways even stronger than it was before covid, and it was pretty strong back then, if anything the fed is worried that it could be too strong. now. of course, we are still hearing about layoffs, especially in tech on the latest company to announce layoffs is elektronik arts, the video game maker of madden and fifa. they're cutting about 800 jobs, but still when you look big picture outside of tech, the numbers show that a lot of companies are holding onto their workers. and matt. what about the gdp? where does that fit into everything? well the latest
10:45 am
numbers show that the u. s economy grew at an annual rate of 2.6% in the fourth quarter. that is pretty solid on one concerning number that came out from today's report is consumer spending that decelerated at the end of last year. we need to keep an eye on that, because consumer spending is the main driver this economy, but listen , this is a rear view looking number a lot of investors and, um the fed. they're more focused on what's happening right now in the economy, especially because a lot has changed since the fourth quarter of last year. i mean, that was before the bank crisis, and so what's interesting, though, is that despite the bank failures, there are some early signs that the economy may actually have picked up steam. during this first quarter, which ends tomorrow. the atlanta fed's gdp now forecast is actually calling for an acceleration from 2.6% gdp in the fourth quarter two 23.2% alex. i think the big question
10:46 am
is how long this economy can stay resilient despite the bank turmoil and despite all of the interest rate hikes from the fed alright matt eagan, breaking that down for us. appreciate it. new season. new rules major league baseball's opening day is here. that's next. i can't believe this is h how you kids talk to your friends. this is talking. did you have a nice day? look at the size of these butterfly shrimp, enormous shrimp. what no, she's talking. i'm fernando liveutside of boston. i've been with consumer cellular for five years. consumer cellula gives you all the same features that these big companies give you. what you get for the for the cost is remarkable. why would you pay more money? why would you pay more when you can get unlimited talk and text with a flexible data plans starting at just $20 a month. i think they should raise their prices. sorry,

10:51 am
department is currently giving an update on the arrest of the wall street journal reporter in russia. ivan gorshkov itch. let's take a listen can offer first the u. s. embassy in moscow has requested official notification of the arrest, and russia is required to provide that under our bilateral consular convention, second whenever u. s citizens are arrested abroad, we pursue consular access as soon as possible, however, due to russia's administrative procedures and security requirements, it will likely be several days before that happens. third we are in close contact with the wall street journal on this issue, and also i would like to make it clear that it is not safe for us citizens to be in the russian federation. any us citizen reciting or traveling in russia should depart immediately, as stated in our latest travel advisory, those who require assistance in departing russia
10:52 am
should contact the u. s embassy in moscow for assistance. unfortunately we have seen how the russian government's escalating repression affects journalists, as well as civil society activists and the broader russian community since february, 24th 2022 dozens of outlets and more than 100, individual media professionals have been labeled as undesirable organizations or foreign agents for doing their jobs. russian citizens are routinely jailed or fined for reporting basic facts or daring to share any opinion that differs from the kremlin's narrative. our first priority will always be u s citizens, but i want to reiterate to independent russian journalists and civil society voices who continue to speak out or are jailed or are in exile. we stand in absolute solidarity with you. matt if you want to. yeah well, so on that, uh can you give us any more detail about? you know when you knew how you knew?
10:53 am
about this arrest and you know what you're doing about it other than just reaching out to the russian foreign ministry that we are still very much in their early stages here, and so that is, in fact what we're doing. we're trying to obtain and ascertain as much information as we can. i'm certainly not at a place to speak to the specifics of this case beyond what i already said, given privacy considerations, but i again would say that we are immensely concerned over russia's announcement that has detained a u. s city. citizen journalist. in contact. as i said with the wall street journal about this situation, and we have not yet heard back from the russian foreign ministry affairs, but we reached out through the appropriate channels as soon as we were made aware of this reporting, so your understanding right now is there is no privacy act waiver. for this person is
10:54 am
correct. would you recommend that people who are traveling in russia who do not heed your advice to leave immediately? sign one. i'm not want to. you know if they want. you guys to be able to speak about their case? i'm not here to, uh, offer legal advice, matt. i am here to say two things first, that when any american and any part of the world is detained, we moved quickly to seek consular access . just as we have, as we have in this case, and secondly, our travel advisory warning for russia continues to be a level four and has been for quite some time, and that continues to be the case, and it continues to be our message to any american citizen currently inside the russian federation. jenny. i think we don't do you expect to name evan as wrongfully detained
10:55 am
and if so, what is that process? how quickly do you think that designation will be made? and then can you say when you file this notice with the ministry of foreign affairs and moscow? is there any sort of timeline that they're required to meet you grant consular access or provide this notification? jenny uh, the department regularly reviews the circumstances surrounding the detentions of us nationals overseas for indicators that these detentions are wrongful. i'm not going to get ahead of that process, as this just happened yesterday. of course i'm seeing the same public reporting that you are seeing as it relates to these charges. and don't think that there is any truth to them. but again, i'm going to let this process play out and not not get ahead of this process and then again in terms of notifications or any of the sequencing. i'm just now that ability to speak to the specifics given privacy considerations, but the minute that we were aware the
10:56 am
department has been deeply engaged on this, as has been our embassy in moscow. can i follow up? you said even citizens residing in russia should leave that evan was an accredited journalists there you saying it's not safe for even people who are accredited, you know, with the ministry or working for international organizations are message to american citizens residing in russia is that the travel advisory warning is a level four and that they should leave. and if they need assistance doing so they can get in touch with our mission in moscow. sean go ahead. the russians, the state department spokesman, they're updating reporters on the case of evan gersh covic, the wall street journal reporter who was arrested in russia and has is now facing accusations of espionage accusations that, of course, the wall street journal and the united states have said are untrue. the state department they're saying that it will likely be several days before
10:57 am
the u. s embassy in moscow gets consular access. to guess covic . he also warned that united citizens who are still in russia should leave immediately. that is warning that the state department has been making for quite some time continued criticism from the biden administration aimed at the kremlin for their efforts to silence journalists, civil society and the opposition. a big question now, which was opposed by our colleague, jenny handler, is whether at some point soon. the state department will say that ceviche was wrongfully detained. that will do it for me this hour. please don't go anywhere. we have much more breaking news ahead. moderate to severe eczema still disrupts my skinin despite treatment, it disrupts my skin with it disrupts my skin rash. but now i can disrupt eczema with invoke is not a steroid topical or injection. it's one
