“The crime was prepared and committed by Ukrainian special services,” the FSB said in a statement carried by Russian news agencies.
It added that the perpetrator — a female Ukrainian citizen born in 1979 — on Sunday fled to EU member Estonia.
The FSB in its statement identified the woman as Natalia Vovk.
Daria Dugina was killed Saturday when a bomb placed in a Toyota Land Cruiser went off as she drove on a highway some 40 kilometres (25 miles) outside Moscow.
According to the FSB statement, the attacker arrived in Russia in July 2022 with her underage daughter and rented an apartment in the same building where Dugina lived.
The supposed attacker followed Dugina in a Mini Cooper with registration plates issued in Kazakhstan, Ukraine and in the breakaway Donetsk People’s Republic in eastern Ukraine, the FSB added.
The FSB said the attacker was at a festival outside Moscow that Dugin and his daughter attended on Saturday.
Reports from Russian media suggested Dugina borrowed her father’s car at the last minute.
