RUSSIA: Darya Dugin, the daughter of Ukraine war mastermind Alexander Dugin, was killed in a car bombing on the outskirts of Russia’s capital Moscow on Saturday night in an alleged assassination plot meant for her father. Darya, a sanctioned Russian nationalist whose 60-year-old father, Alexander Dugin, is dubbed 'Putin's brain', was killed in an explosion on a highway near the village of Bolshiye Vyazyomy just outside the capital.
CCTV footage from the bombing scene shows Darya's Land Cruiser Prado engulfed in flames with at least one fire truck in attendance.
Amid claims of a plot gone wrong, Putin stooge Denis Pushilin, head of the pro-Kremlin breakaway Donetsk People's Republic in eastern Ukraine, accused Ukrainian 'terrorists' of killing Alexander’s daughter.
He wrote on Telegram: 'The terrorists of the Ukrainian regime, trying to eliminate Alexander Dugin, blew up his daughter... In a car. Blessed memory of Daria, she is a real Russian girl!'
Darya Dugin was driving back from a festival when her car suddenly exploded.
According to sources, her father, Alexander, was meant to be travelling with her but he took a separate car. Alexander is the former chief editor of the staunchly pro-Putin Tsargrad TV network.
