  • The FSB identified Ukrainian citizen Natalya Vovk as the perpetrator, claiming she entered Russia with her daughter, shadowed Dugina, and then fled to Estonia after the attack.
  • Ukraine's presidential adviser Mykhailo Podolyak vehemently denied any Ukrainian involvement in Dugina's death, calling Russia's claims 'propaganda'.
  • Alexander Dugin, often dubbed 'Putin's brain,' is a prominent ideologue promoting the 'Russian world' concept and a strong supporter of Russia's actions in Ukraine; his daughter Daria shared similar ultra-nationalist views.
