Daria Dugina, 30, political commentator and daughter of Oleksandr Dugin - Putin's ideologist - died following the explosion of her car on the outskirts of Moscow.

The incident took place around 9.45pm local time on Saturday near the village of Velyki Vyazomi, about 20 kilometers west of the Russian capital. The woman was driving a Toyota Land Cruiser Prado owned by her father and on which there were no other passengers.

After the explosion - some witnesses said - the car overturned and went off the road. The charred (and unrecognizable) body of the victim was recovered by rescuers who arrived on the spot.

In some videos - released online - we see Dugin desperate, with his hands in his hair, a few meters from the burning car. He was supposed to be in that car too , but in the end he decided to travel in another car.

An investigation was opened in Moscow, an exhibition bomb was planted on the car. This is to all intents and purposes an attack that also endangered other people who were nearby.

Several pro-Kremlin Russian leaders are accusing Kiev of commissioning the murder . The leader of the self-proclaimed pro-Russian Republic of Donetsk, Donbass, Denis Pushilin, on his account on Telegram, openly accused Ukraine: " Infamous cowards ! The terrorists of the Ukrainian regime, in an attempt to eliminate Aleksandr Dugin, blew up his daughter. She was a real Russian girl, "he wrote.

Russian law enforcement is investigating the attack. "If the Ukrainian trail is confirmed by the competent authorities, then we will have the confirmation of the state terrorism policy implemented by the Kiev regime ," said the spokeswoman for the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova.

Accusations rejected to the sender by Mykhailo Podolyak, Zelensky's main adviser: " Ukraine has nothing to do with the murder of Dugin's daughter ," he declares. "We are not a criminal state, unlike Russia, and certainly not a terrorist state," he adds, speaking on national television.

Oleksandr Dugin , advisor to several politicians, is a Russian philosopher known for his anti-Western, far-right and “neo-Eurasian” views. In recent years he has been defined by the Western media as one of the inspirers of Vladimir Putin's foreign policy , while the Russian press considers him a "marginal figure" for his views "considered too radical even by nationalists". In 2014 he was fired from Moscow State University after his appeal to "kill, kill, kill" Ukrainians.
