Zakharova joked about the US call to the Americans to leave Russia

Earlier on Thursday, the FSB announced that Gershkovich, a correspondent for the WSJ’s Moscow bureau, was detained in Yekaterinburg on suspicion of spying on behalf of the US government. According to the intelligence service, the American collected information “about the activities of one of the enterprises of the Russian military-industrial complex”, which constitutes a state secret. Press Secretary of the President of the Russian Federation Dmitry Peskov said that Gershkovich was caught red-handed.
