In a handwritten letter sent to the U.S. since his arrest in Russia, journalist Evan Gershkovich told his family that he is "not losing hope" and continues to read and write in detention.

"I read. I exercise. And I am trying to write. Maybe, finally, I am going to write something good," Gershkovich wrote in Russian, the language he speaks at home with his parents, The Wall Street Journal reported.

Gershkovich, a Journal correspondent based in Moscow, was arrested at the end of March during a reporting trip to the provincial city of Yekaterinburg, which is home to various Russian military factories.
