Darya Dugina, the 29-year-old daughter of Russian ideologue Alexander Dugin, an outspoken advocate for the invasion of Ukraine, was killed in a shock car bombing in the outskirts of Moscow in August 2022.
Weeks earlier, a mother and her 12-year-old daughter drove into Russia from Estonia in a "cluttered" car containing a cat carrier with a hidden compartment for containing parts of the bomb that killed Dugina, the Post reported, citing unnamed security officials familiar with the operation.
The woman took an apartment in the same complex as Dugina and surveilled her before the operation, Russian officials have said. The bomb was intended to kill Dugin, but he got into a different car.
Within days, Russia had accused Ukrainian spies of being behind the brazen attack. Kyiv has denied the claim.
US intelligence drew the same conclusion, however, and officials told The New York Times last year that they had admonished Ukraine over it.
The Post reported Monday that Ukraine's domestic security service, the SBU, was behind the attack, citing unnamed current and former US and Ukrainian officials.
"The August 2022 attack is part of a raging shadow war in which Ukraine's spy services have also twice bombed the bridge connecting Russia to occupied Crimea, piloted drones into the roof of the Kremlin and blown holes in the hulls of Russian naval vessels in the Black Sea," the report said.
The missions involved Ukrainian teams "formed, trained and equipped in close partnership with the CIA," the Post reported, adding that the extent of the CIA's partnership with Ukraine's security services -- which dates back to 2015, after Russia annexed Crimea -- has not been previously disclosed.
But the Post also said there was growing unease over the "dozens" of assassinations carried out by the SBU and its military arm GUR.

Ukraine targets political and military leaders in Russia.
Perhaps a new era of war by targeted assassination of leaders is beginning.
There's no reason to kill masses of conscripts if you can kill bunches of generals.
BUT, it only happened after Russia illegally invaded Ukraine, and attacked civilians with kinetic missiles
maybe Russia shouldn’t have done those things, more people would still be alive today, huh?
True, but if you are at war, that is less of a problem.
It seems like a good use of AI and 3D printing to develop intelligent drone bombs disguised as common household objects that can sneak up on the victim and detonate.
Or maybe a robotic puppy bomb?
Shouldn’t you be concerned about Castros son who is destroying your country?
Oh. So it was okay to get back at some Russian guy by killing his daughter. Got it.
Targeting non-combatants with car bombs is terrorism indeed. State terrorism in this case.
war is hell
if you Russians don’t like it, why did you start this war?
Killing a 29 year old daughter of a philosopher, no matter how popular, is not assassinating political leaders. When the time comes that someone starts hunting and killing globalist leaders and influencers, no matter how far removed from combat fatigues they may be, it will be sheer hypocrisy to hear you complain about it.
Did HAMAS had a point attacking Israeli civilians? Or was Osama justified on 9/11? Some consistency wouldn’t hurt you.
Maybe Ukrainians killed Dugina or maybe it was the Russians. Maybe they targeted the psycho father or maybe the fascist piece of shit daughter. Nothing wrong with killing either of these pieces of shit.
Neither of these inhuman propagandist scum was a civilian. Taking out russian Goebbels’s is warfighting.
Likelier that some fellow Russian shits killed them. Ukrainians have better targets.
Well look who slithered back in. Shouldn’t you be sucking up to Iran these days?

This cannot be said enough.
The globalist socialists intent on destroying our world in order to bring about their "new beginning" should be called out at every chance. One world government of the WEF and/or all of its permutations is the ultimate tyranny.
Sic semper tyrannis
if you look closely, you’ll notice I sympathize with the victims, not the warmongering attackers
Osama Bin Laden, Hamas, and Russia all launched surprise attacks on innocent countries
look at my comments Rooskie, I still support the victims - America, Israel, and Ukraine
that’s consistency
You are entitled to your own delusions regarding Russia.
But you are not entitled to your own facts.
Promises made (by the nations of the west) were not kept regarding NATO membership.
Of course, for decades the USSR had made promises and then broken the promises.
But written assurances are considered a solemn commitment. And those assurances were broken by NATO.
So quit with the name calling, please.
What is the document on NATO membership?
LOL. I hope you understand now why Arabs danced on 9/11. Today more than half of the world population is going to celebrate once it happens again. You are full of crap.
what promises are you talking about?
There is no such treaty.
Every person in the position to know - Bush, Baker, Shevardnadze and even Gorbachev himself (!) has said there was never any such promise.
It’s just nonsense propaganda Russia spreads. They do this because they know there are plenty of people, whose hate for America is so great, that they’ll believe anything even when all the evidence shows the claims to be false.
