Commentary by Russian blogger Donetsk.

[DonRF] The murder of Darya Dugina is undoubtedly a tragedy. The death of a civilian is always a tragedy. Here's yesterday:

Over the past day, from 08:00 on August 20 to 08:00 on August 21, as a result of shelling of the VFU in the territory of the Donetsk People's Republic, two people were killed and eight civilians were injured (one of the victims was wounded by a prohibited anti-personnel mine PFM-1 )

Two people died in the DPR. At least one more cripple. So the kingdom of heaven. Interesting in this murder is different - who killed and why. I wonder why such a violent reaction. I wonder what's next. Let's start with the fact that the explosion of a car in the MSC is in itself an act of terrorism. Criminal or political. And since Dugin is not a businessman, and not a star of the first magnitude, business and criminality are unlikely.

Of course, it makes little sense to respected negotiating partners, but knowing Kyiv friends and conscientious investors who have their own gang underground, but do not have the skills and capabilities, but are pursuing tactics of intimidating the Russian society, they could well. Easily. The goal is without protection, without protection, but somehow sideways from afar involved in the Kremlin. Even so. Not one hundred percent of course, this is already a consequence will say (or not say).

But the reaction of the media party is understandable. They are not bad people, by no means, not animals, not complete cynics. They are at work. And while children were being killed in Makovka, old people in Energodar, while children were being maimed in the Belgorod region, it was from afar and abstract. And the party line demanded to crush thoughts about mobilization, about decision-making centers, about anything sharp. They pressed, ridiculing those (and some demanding that they be imprisoned, forced to eat asphalt, introduce total censorship) who demanded the strange. And now the trouble has come to the party. To journalists and LOMs. In Moscow living rooms. That's all. Report figures are one thing, personal acquaintances are another. The abyss stretched and looked into the face.

What's next? NOTHING. No one will change the course on such a "little thing". Yes, and what to change? That's serious. Within the framework of the SVO, when we almost agreed on the supply of spare parts for agricultural machinery to the Russian Federation, and the supply of Russian products to the EU, there will be no drastic change. There will be artillery, there will be local operations and attachment to the treaty. So, I repeat once again - Daria has the Kingdom of Heaven, like all those who died in the conflict, but wait for something ... Excuse me, I'm more worried about the events in the DPR, where people die every day, and there is no end in sight. For me, people are people, regardless of the party.
