A Ukrainian military intelligence officer who initially confessed to killing Anastasiia Berezovska, the woman suspected of attempting to bomb a Ukrainian oligarch in Monaco, has retracted his confession in a Kyiv court and blamed his co-defendant instead. Two men have been detained in connection with the killing.
Ukrainian authorities found the body of Anastasiia Berezovska, suspected of the June 29 Monaco bombing targeting Ukrainian businessman Vadym Iermolaiev. A Ukrainian intelligence officer has reportedly confessed to killing her, according to prosecutors.
Interpol has identified 39-year-old Anastasiia Berezovska, a Ukrainian woman living in Germany, as the main suspect in a Monaco bombing that injured Ukrainian construction tycoon Vadym Yermolaiev, his partner, and his teenage son. Authorities say the suspect disguised herself as a man during the attack.
Authorities have identified a suspect and issued an arrest warrant following a parcel bomb attack in Monaco that seriously wounded sanctioned Ukrainian-born oligarch Vadym Iermolaiev and two others. The bombing occurred outside an apartment building in the wealthy principality, shattering the city-state's sense of security.
An explosive device planted at a residential building entrance in Monaco seriously wounded a Ukrainian-born oligarch with Russian ties and two family members in what authorities are treating as an attempted assassination. Police have launched an international manhunt for a suspect who fled to France.
