    Russian FSB: Ukraine's Special Services behind Darya Dugina's murder

The Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) announced on Monday that Darya Dugina, the daughter of Russian political philosopher and analyst Alexander Dugin, was killed in a car bombing prepared and executed by Ukraine's special services.

The Russian Investigative Committee determined that an explosive device was hidden beneath the car's floor on the driver's side. The FSB revealed that Ukrainian citizen Vovk Natalya was behind the murder. 

"The crime was prepared and committed by the Ukrainian special services. The performer is a citizen of Ukraine Vovk Natalya ... born in 1979, who arrived in Russia on July 23, 2022, together with her daughter ... In order to organize the murder of D. Dugina and obtain information about her lifestyle, they rented an apartment in Moscow in the house where the deceased lived," the FSB said.  

Following the remotely engineered explosion of Dugina's car, Vovk and her daughter fled to Estonia via the Pskov Region, according to the FSB.

Reports revealed that a Mini Cooper was deployed to spy on Dugina. The license plate numbers on the car were altered three times (numbers of the DPR, Kazakhstan, and Ukraine were used).

Russian political thinker and bereaved father Alexander Dugin is in the hospital after the assassination of his beloved daughter, according to political analyst Sergei Markov. 

In an exclusive interview for Al Mayadeen, expert in Russian affairs Bassam Al-Bunni confirmed that there are reports that Alexander Dugin was rushed to the hospital after suffering from a nervous breakdown following the assassination of his daughter.

On Saturday night, a large explosion tore into an SUV on a highway 20 km away west of Moscow, instantly killing its driver, who was identified as political commentator Darya Dugina. Dugin the father is an influential veteran political commentator, also known as one of the Kremlin's "ideological masterminds" and an occasional contributor to Al Mayadeen English.

The assassination was carried out at 21:35 Moscow time. Witnesses divulged that the explosion happened in the middle of the road, where debris and metal wreckage scattered in the air right before the car crashed into a fence, as seen in photos and videos.
