A car bombing meant to eliminate her father killed the daughter of the Ukraine war mastermind and dubbed Vladimir Putin’s “Rasputin”
Darya dugin was literally ‘dismembered’ by an Hollywood-style “assassination plot” near Bolshiye Vyazyomy. It took place on Saturday night.
Alexander Dugin (60), was said to have written the hit for his daughter. He had originally planned to return to her home from the festival but decided to drive a different car.
A video allegedly captured at the scene shows Darya’s Land Cruiser Prado being set on fire at a roadside, with at least one firetruck present.
Because of his close relationships with warring presidents, Alexander’s father is sometimes called ‘Putin’s brain’ or ‘philosopher’.
He was the ex-chief editor at the pro-Putin Tsargrad TV channel and is believed to have been the one behind the current Ukraine invasion.
Denis Pushilin is the head of eastern Ukraine’s breakaway Donetsk People’s Republic. He called the authors of this ‘attack’ “vile villains”.
Telegram conversation: “The terrorists in Ukraine tried to kill Alexander Dugin. In a car. She is blessed memory of Daria.
It is not known who the assassin was.
The scene is captured in footage that allegedly shows the inferno boiling over on a roadside. At least one fire truck was present.

Alexander has been called the ‘Putin brain’ or a ‘philosopher’ because of his close relationships with the warring president.
Although he does not have a formal government role, Alexander Dugin is a far-right, occult writer who has been said to influence Putin in many areas, especially when it comes propaganda.
After being used extensively by Dugin between 2013 and 2014, the Novorossiya term (New Russia) was given new life by him.
This comes at a time when Russian forces are intensifying their fight to capture one of the declining number of cities in eastern Ukraine that they don’t already control and continuing their fire on villages and towns in the country’s north and southern.
Officials from Ukraine claimed that Russian bombardment had caused the collapse of balconies in Mykolayiv’s southern region and broken windows, injuring at most nine civilians.
According to the governor of the Black Sea Region, a five-storey apartment block and several private residences in Voznesensk had been badly damaged.
Vitaliykim wrote on Telegram that nine people were injured including four children.
Any child in serious condition. The ages range from 3 to 17 years old. His statement also stated that Saturday’s attack resulted in the loss of an eye for a little girl.
According to Kremlin-backed officials, the Ukrainian Air Force struck the targets of the largest Russian-occupied town in southern Zaporizhzhia, reflecting the widening frontlines in the almost six-month-long war.
Melitopol, Ukraine’s mayor, stated that preliminary reports had pointed to an ‘exact hit’ on a Russian military facility.
According to the Kremlin-backed government, the attack caused damage to residential areas and injured one civilian.
The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine stated that intensified fighting was taking place around Bakhmut. This small city would allow Russia to take control of the two remaining largest urban centres of Ukraine in the eastern Donbas.
Bakhmut, a target for Moscow’s east offensive since weeks has been Russia’s key target. The Russian military is trying to end a month-long campaign that aims to capture all of Donbas. This industrial area borders Russia and where pro-Moscow separatists self-proclaimed two independent republics. Local officials in Ukraine reported fighting Saturday morning close to four settlements at the border between Donetsk, Luhansk, and Donetsk regions that together form the contested territory.
Russian forces captured Donetsk’s Ukrainian-held territories last month after they retook Luhansk in its entirety. Russian bombardment killed seven civilians in Donetsk on Friday, with four more in Bakhmut. Pavlo Kyrylenko, Governor of Donetsk Province, wrote Saturday via Telegram that the Russians had also shelled Bakhmut.
Bakhmut could give Russia the opportunity to expand their reach on Kramatorsk (the main Ukrainian-held city) and Sloviansk (the province’s other major cities). Sloviansk, Kramatorsk and the Kharkiv to the north were all targeted by the Russians on Friday according to the General Staff Update.
The air strikes against Melitopol, a Russian-occupied city in the south of Ukraine were not commented upon by either Moscow or Kyiv. Igor Konashenkov from the Russian Defence Ministry claimed that pro-Russian forces had destroyed Ukrainian shells close to the city. He also said the Russians have taken control of a power plant in the Kherson area, which they seized very early in the conflict.
According to the Kremlin’s Melitopol-based administration, the head confirmed that the city was under Ukrainian attack. Telegram broadcaster Galina Danilchenko stating that “During the night the Kyiv Regime launched two attacks against our beautiful Melitopol and on residential areas in the city. Russian air defense systems destroyed missiles but the bombardment caused damage to the homes of (two) residents.
