| Anastasiia Berezovska |
Anastasiia Berezovska, is the 39-year-old Ukrainian woman suspected of planting the parcel bomb in Monaco on June 29, 2026. Unfortunately for her, she was found shot dead near Kyiv.
Some of you might not remember or know about the Monaco Bombing so I will provide the facts as we know them.
A shrapnel-packed explosive device detonated in the entrance hall of an apartment building in Monaco, seriously injuring Ukrainian-born businessman Vadym Yermolaiev (a sanctioned oligarch with reported Russia ties), his partner, and their son. Authorities described it as a targeted attack. Berezovska was seen on surveillance disguising herself as a man (heavily built, dark long-sleeved top, light shorts, black bucket hat). She fled the scene on foot, then by car to Germany.Monaco prosecutors and Interpol issued a Red Notice for her on charges including attempted murder, placing an explosive device in a public place with criminal intent, and criminal conspiracy. She was Ukrainian, spoke German, and had a tattoo. German police raided a flat linked to her.
A serving Ukrainian military intelligence (HUR/GUR) officer confessed to killing her, along with a former law enforcement officer, who also took the law into his own hands. The officer admitted he acted on his own initiative, without informing superiors, and had prior contacts with Berezovska (including money transfers).
No confirmed motive or direct link has been publicly established between Berezovska’s killing and the Monaco bombing’s organizers. Ukrainian officials emphasize the intelligence officer acted independently. Speculation (unconfirmed in official statements) includes possible Ukrainian intelligence ties to the original attack, given Yermolaiev’s profile and the rapid cross-border developments.
This remains an active investigation with cross-border elements (Monaco, Ukraine, Germany, Interpol).

Her body was discovered by Ukraine's Security Service (SBU) and the Prosecutor General’s Office on July 6 - 7. She suffered from gunshot wounds to the head where pistol cartridges were on the ground nearby outside Kyiv. She had been buried and the site with torture tools was also discovered.
A serving Ukrainian military intelligence (HUR/GUR) officer confessed to killing her, along with a former law enforcement officer, who also took the law into his own hands. The officer admitted he acted on his own initiative, without informing superiors, and had prior contacts with Berezovska (including money transfers).
The two men were detained.

Ukrainian officials emphasize the intelligence officer acted independently. Speculation (unconfirmed in official statements) includes possible Ukrainian intelligence ties to the original attack, given Yermolaiev’s profile and the rapid cross-border developments.
The case raises questions about internal Ukrainian dynamics and risks to sanctioned figures abroad.The bombing obviously shocked Monaco, a hub for wealthy Ukrainians and Russians and fast cars.
This remains an active investigation with cross-border elements (Monaco, Ukraine, Germany, Interpol).
Details could evolve as more evidence emerges.
