US basketballer Brittney Griner has been jailed for nine years by a Russian court.
The sentence comes nearly six months after Moscow airport security staff found vape cartridges containing cannabis oil in her luggage.
But the US is describing the ruling as a miscarriage of justice.
Al Jazeera's @Mike Hanna reports from Washington, DC.
