Darya Dugina

US intelligence services believe that individuals within the Ukrainian government approved the assassination of Darya Dugina, the daughter of the influential Russian philosopher Alexander Dugin.
The news was published by the New York Times, stating that the US denies any involvement in this attack.

According to the Russian media, it is Ukrainian citizen Bogdan Tsyganenko (42), who is suspected of being responsible, together with Natalya Vovk, for the bomb attack in which Darya Dugina was killed.
Tsyganenko, 44, arrived in Russia via Estonia on July 30 and left the country the day before the killing, the FSB said.

The sense of dread deepened Tuesday in Ukraine because of warnings that Russia may try to spoil the country's Independence Day holiday and mark the war's six-month point with intensified attacks.

The reaction by the US Department of State to the murder of journalist and public activist Darya Dugina discredits Washington's international human rights activity, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova wrote on her Telegram channel on Tuesday.

Russia on Aug. 22 declared Ukrainian intelligence responsible for the brazen car bombing that killed the daughter of a leading right-wing Russian political thinker over the weekend. Ukraine denied involvement.

Russian services blamed Ukraine for the murder of Darya Dugina, the Russian news agency Interfax reported.

According to Russia's Federal Security Service, "the crime was prepared and carried out by the Ukrainian special services."

The FSB revealed the murder of Russian journalist Darya Dugina, the Federal Security Service said in a statement.

"It is Putin's style to blame Ukraine for the murder of Darya Dugina. Let's not forget that Russia attacked Ukraine for no reason and has been at war with it since 2014 when it annexed Crimea and entered Donbas."

This was commented by the ambassador of Ukraine to Bulgaria Vitaly Moskalenko on Nova TV.
