PHOTOS shared on social media show a mural in Belgrade, Serbia of Darya Dugina, the daughter of Aleksandr Dugin, who was killed in Moscow over the weekend as the result of a car bombing.

War correspondent Sam Ramani shared a photo on Wednesday, August 24, with the caption: “A mural of Darya Dugina has popped up in Belgrade, Serbia,” which has already received hundreds of comments.

“How sick!” one person wrote.

John Sipher wrote: “Sad.”

Another wrote: “Since this looks like a perfect urinal spot for drunk serbs, I‘m not even all that mad tbh.”

The photo had been previously shared by Twitter user Michael Colborne, who wrote: “In central Belgrade 🇷🇸, members of the far-right ‘People’s Patrol’ (Narodna patrola) have painted a mural of Darya Dugin, the late daughter of Aleksandr Dugin — they call her “a great friend of the Serbian people”

One person said: “We need a thorough cleaning of Belgrade.”

Earlier, Andriy Yurash, Ukrainian Ambassador to the Vatican, commented on a speech given by Pope Francis on Wednesday, August 24 in which he called Darya Dugin an ‘innocent war victim’.

Ms Dugin was blown up in her car in Moscow on Saturday, August 20.

The Pope said: “I think of that poor girl blown up by a bomb under her car seat in Moscow.

“The innocent pay for war. The innocent! Let us think about this reality and say to each other: War is madness.”

Following the speech, Yurash took to Twitter to share his opinion on the comments from the Pope.

“I think of that poor girl blown up by a bomb under her car seat in Moscow,” he said.

“The innocent pay for war. The innocent! Let us think about this reality and say to each other: War is madness.”

As noted, Darya Dugin died as a result of a car bombing over the weekend.

She was the daughter of Aleksandr Dugin, who has previously been dubbed ‘Rasputin’, and ‘Putin’s brain’, due to the influence he allegedly holds over the Russian president, as well as their close personal relationship.

On Monday, August 22, Russia’s FSB released a video reportedly showing the woman alleged to have murdered Darya Dugin, the daughter of close Vladimir Putin aide, Aleksandr Dugin.

The woman was named, Natalia Vovk.

According to reports, Vovk rented an apartment in Moscow near Daria Dugina’s home in order to “obtain information about her lifestyle.”

This information appeared to contradict earlier reports that Aleksandr Dugin was the intended target of the car bomb attack.

Vovk is now apparently hiding in Estonia following the incident, the FSB reported on Monday, August 22.
