Propagandist and Editor-in-chief of RT Margarita Simonyan told Russian state news agency RIA Novosti that a second drone this week came down near her house outside of Moscow.

“It’s loud, I want to tell you that. It wakes you up at 3:30 a.m. when you’ve only just managed to fall asleep,” she said.

Simonyan’s opinion is that the Ukrainian side is launching drone attacks on Moscow to “send people into a panic,” so that they’ll demand that the Russian president stop the war “if only so these drones won’t be flying over our heads.”

“That won’t happen,” she said, adding “Not only will we not fall back, actually our brakes will fail in this case, only one pedal remains — the gas.”
