Russia claims it knows who killed Darya Dugina, the daughter of far-right ultranationalist Alexander Dugin, an influential ally of Vladimir Putin. Dugina was killed by a car bomb outside Moscow Saturday night, with the Dugins' security service telling Russian state media that Ukraine is responsible for her death. Ukraine has denied any involvement in the explosion. Correspondent Fred Pleitgen takes a closer look at the incident and who the Dugins are. Also providing insight and perspective on the bombing are Masha Gessen, a staff writer for the New Yorker, and Ekaterina Kotrikadze, anchor and news director at TV Rain, Russia's only independent news channel.
Also on today's show: Anya Kamenetz, author of The Stolen Year: How Covid Changed Children's Lives, and Where We Go Now; Erich Schwartzel, author of Red Carpet: Hollywood, China, and the Global Battle for Cultural Supremacy.
