Darya Dugina was a Russian journalist and political activist who was killed in a car bombing on the outskirts of Moscow on 20 August 2022. She was the daughter of political philosopher Aleksandr Dugin, whose political views and support for Vladimir Putin she shared.[1]

On 06. July 2022 [2] she was placed on the Ukrainian kill list Myrotvorets.[3]

Assassination

According to Russian state news agency TASS:

"The murder of journalist Darya Dugina has been solved, it was prepared by the Ukrainian special services, by Natalya Vovk a citizen of Ukraine," TASS reported, citing Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB), which named a woman as the perpetrator and said she had fled to Estonia after the attack.

The FSB said that Natalya Vovk arrived in Russia on July 23 with her young daughter and attended a festival on Saturday near Moscow where Dugina was a guest of honour.[4]

"The criminals used a Mini Cooper car to monitor the journalist," TASS reported, citing the FSB, adding that the woman had rented an apartment in Moscow in the same building where Dugina lived.

After remotely detonating explosives planted in Dugina's Toyota Land Cruiser Prado, the FSB said the woman and her daughter drove through the Pskov region to Estonia, roughly a 12-hour journey.[5]

“Not so long ago, the FSB was directly engaged in smashing assassination attempts, organized by the SBU, against Russian journalists, as in the case of Olga Skabaeyeva and Vladimir Soloviev. It’s mind-boggling that Dugin and his family were not protected by the Russian intelligence/security apparatus.”
