a prominent member of the ultra nationalist movement and supporting rushes invasion of ukraine. e on the be the word that she called for genocide of ukrainians. she called the pregnancy sub human rays. she called for public, ah, public killings of ukrainian prisoners of war, et cetera. so yes, she's a deacons daughter, bart, she is, 1st of all a very active member of our russian fall, right nationalist, neo nazi, our influential scene a spokesperson for ukraine and president involved him. a zalinski has denied keith was involved, but pro russian separate his se ukraine was behind the blast and rushes foreign ministry spokeswoman murray. as a heroine said if the investigations trail lead to ukraine, it would amount to state terrorism. and this is how did up is russia and less konstantin eggers. describe the situation, the, pardon the reaction to dairy to gain his killing in russia. well, when i woke up this morning, i saw the russian twitter sphere,

the russian sort of social media, really exploding with this news and predictably those who are support a president, putin and his war was saying, this is an act of terrorism. and those who oppose him and a lot of ukrainians was saying, serves duke in the right. even basically, if he was the target of this or a parent assassination attempt, although frankly what i've seen in the last 23 hours is quite interesting because a new report of servicing that the car in which her daddy, our duke in our travelled, ah, was really a her car and not dugan's car. so now a new version is that actually she was the intended victim of this hit. if this wasn't it hits, but it seems like it was, are certainly in that would appear to be a, but just to help us understand
