Ukrainian woman suspect in Monaco parcel bomb shot dead in Kyiv

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.

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.

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.

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.

About 800 illegal aliens busted in Florida ICE operation

Buckle up, America—Operation Tidal Wave just crashed down hard. In a balls-to-the-wall team-up, ICE Miami and Florida’s finest badge-wearers rounded up nearly 800 illegals in just four days. This ain’t no small-time sweep; it’s a multi-agency gut-punch to the underbelly of illegal immigration.

Fox News got the dirt on some of ICE’s biggest catches from this ongoing blitz. We’re talking heavy hitters: a Colombian murderer, MS-13 and 18th Street gang scum, and a Russian with an Interpol Red Notice for mowing down a life.

Jose Sanchez Reyes, a Colombian who slipped into the U.S. like a ghost, was convicted of homicide back home. Guy’s got blood on his hands.

Rafael Juarex Cabrera, a Guatemalan MS-13 thug, has waltzed back into the U.S. three times like it’s a revolving door. He’s got a felony reentry rap on his sheet.

Savva Klishchevskii, a Russian, is wanted by Interpol for vehicular manslaughter. Bet he thought he could outrun that Red Notice.

Aron Isaak Morazan-Izaguirre, a Honduran 18th Street gangbanger, is flagged as a known or suspected terrorist. He’s allegedly snuck back into the U.S. twice. Bold move, pal.

Operation Tidal Wave’s still rolling, and Florida’s doubling down, locking arms with ICE to fuel President Trump’s mass deportation juggernaut. No brakes, no mercy.

CBP brought “extraordinary support” to the table, per officials, who’re calling this op a home run. ICE took to X, dropping a statement: “We appreciate our [Department of Homeland Security (DHS)] partner’s commitment to public safety.” 

This all comes hot on the heels of two judges getting cuffed for allegedly playing hide-and-seek with illegals. Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan’s facing charges of obstruction and concealing a migrant from ICE agents. She thought she could outsmart the feds.

Then there’s former Doña Ana County Magistrate Judge Joel Cano, 68, and his wife, Nancy, 67, slapped with evidence tampering. Word is they were harboring Cristhian Ortega-Lopez, a goon from Venezuela’s Tren de Aragua gang. That’s the kind of company they keep.

Operation Tidal Wave’s just getting started. Stay frosty, folks—this fight’s far from over.
