The daughter of a prominent Moscow nationalist who advocated a “Russian World” ideology to justify expansion by the Kremlin, and who’d herself been sanctioned by the U.S. and U.K., was killed in a car bombing.
Darya Dugina, 29, whose father is far-right political theorist Alexander Dugin, died when the Toyota SUV she was driving exploded about 12 miles west of the capital on Saturday night, according to Russia’s Investigative Committee.
A family friend, Andrey Krasnov, told the state news service Tass that the vehicle belonged to Dugin, who had intended to travel home with his daughter from an event but “went in a different way.”
