Russia has claimed a Ukrainian "spy" was behind a car bomb attack on the daughter of Vladimir Putin's Rasputin-esque "guru" advisor.

Putin loyalist Alexander Dugin, 60, blamed Ukraine for conducting the attack on his daughter, Darya Dugina, 29, on Saturday night in a bombing assumed to be meant for him.

Dugin today demanded "more than just revenge or retribution" for his daughter's death, with Russia's feared FSB spy agency claiming the SBU - Kyiv's special forces - were behind the murder.

The FSB has alleged that a Ukrainian spy called Natalia Vovk, born in 1979, carried out the hit.

Vovk is said to have arrived in Russia on July 23 with her daughter Sophia Shaban, 12, before driving a Mini Cooper to spy on Dugina. Ukraine has vehemently denied any part in the killing in Moscow, accusing the Kremlin of a 'false flag' operation to blame Kyiv.

Dugin said in revenge for the attack, Putin's men must secure a victory against Ukraine in the war.

Dugin's remarks came after it seemed he had strongly slammed Putin shortly before Dugina was demolished in the attack. In response to his remarks, there had been an online campaign to disparage Dugin in the days before the bombing.

The disclosures add to the theory that Dugina was killed by Russian special services or other forces loyal to Putin.

Putin today voiced his "sincere condolences" to Dugina's family, writing in a message: "A vile, cruel crime ended the life of Daria Dugina, a bright, talented person with a real Russian heart - kind, loving, sympathetic and open."

Dugin, a Russian ultranationalist and fascist who has fantasies of rebuilding a vast new empire across Europe and Asia, was taken to hospital after his daughter was killed in the alleged assassination try on his life.

He was crossing on a highway near the village of Bolshiye Vyazyomy just outside the capital on Saturday but chose to travel in a different car to his daughter, dodging death only by chance Moscow investigators yesterday confirmed an explosive device was planted under the Toyota Land Cruiser Prado Dugina was driving. Reports say the explosion may have been initiated by remote control. It contained 400 to 800g of TNT, with some experts saying it was the equivalent to "a simultaneous explosion of six grenades."

Russia's FSB claimed Vovk, believed to be a member of Kyiv's SBU, carried out the attack on Dugina.

"A Mini Cooper was used to spy on the girl [Dugina]. Numbers were changed on it three times - the license plates of the DPR, Kazakhstan and Ukraine were used," reported SHOT media.
