However, the FSB says in a statement that the Ukrainian special services employed a contractor who arrived in Russia in the middle of July with her young daughter.
She allegedly rented an apartment in Ms. Dugina’s building to get to know her better. Additionally, according to the security organization, the suspects drove a Mini Cooper with three different sets of license plates.
After the explosion, the contractor fled to Estonia, according to the FSB.
