Woman suspected of Monaco bomb attack found dead in Ukraine

Ukraine’s security service (SBU) has confirmed that Anastasiia Berezovska, the Ukrainian woman suspected of carrying out a parcel bombing in Monaco, was found dead in Ukraine. Her body was discovered with gunshot wounds to the head, according to official statements.

Berezovska, 39, is believed to have fled Monaco after allegedly planting a bomb that injured a sanctioned Ukrainian multi‑millionaire and his family in an apartment building on 29 June. Interpol had issued a Red Notice for her before the incident, demanding her arrest and location across borders.

A cross‑border manhunt was launched, but the investigation turned sour when Ukrainian authorities discovered that Berezovska had been shot. Two men have been detained in connection with the murder, one of whom is a current officer in Ukraine’s ministry of defence.

Further details will be released as the investigation continues; readers are advised to monitor updates from the SBU and Interpol.
