#BREAKING: In a surprise move, Hong Kong's Court of Appeal allowed pro-democracy media mogul Jimmy Lai's appeal in his 2022 fraud case, quashing the conviction and sentence. This case is unrelated to his jailing under the national security law, and Lai remains behind bars.

My job was also eliminated. It’s been a thrilling challenge to cover seismic changes in China for WaPo. As access shrinks, I believe it has become ever more vital for the world to understand what is happening there. To my amazing colleagues, especially our researchers, 千恩万谢

Few are more knowledgable than @annafifield in the Asia beat. She has been the benchmark for journalists here, a smart, skilled operator and lovely person. This decision is a dereliction of the duties we believed the @wapo upheld. Thinking of all those who have lost their jobs

I was laid off as Asia editor of the Washington Post today. It was an absolute privilege to work with people who are not only incredible journalists but also wonderful humans. My heart breaks for everyone who lost their job today - and for the readers who will be the worse for it

At the scene of the horrific fire in Tai Po Hong Kong and more than 24hrs on there are still fires burning. One being doused by fire fighters but another on an upper floor in another building out of reach. It’s a devastating scene. #HongKongFire
