Darya Dugina, daughter of prominent Russian ultra-nationalist and Putin ally Alexander Dugin was killed on Saturday when the car she was driving exploded near Moscow.

Russia's Federal Security Service says Ukraine is responsible for the killing. Kyiv denies any involvement.

Will Dugina’s death now be the spark Russia has needed to escalate a war that, by all accounts it was starting to lose?
