What we know about woman wanted over Monaco parcel bomb attack

  • An Interpol Red Notice has been issued for Anastasiia Berezovska, a 39-year-old Ukrainian woman, who is the chief suspect in a parcel bomb attack that occurred in Monaco.
  • The incident on Monday evening injured three people, including 58-year-old Vadym Iermolaiev, a woman, and a teenager, when a device was remotely detonated in the lobby of a luxury building.
  • Monaco prosecutor Stephane Thibault stated that Berezovska, who disguised herself as a man and was captured on CCTV, used a car with a German licence plate to travel through several European countries, with her last official residence being in Germany.
  • The primary target, Vadym Iermolaiev, is a wealthy Ukrainian-born Cypriot national and real estate developer who was sanctioned by Kyiv for alleged collaboration with Russia, accusations he has denied.
  • While Mr Iermolaiev is reportedly out of danger, the injured woman remains in critical condition with both her legs amputated, and three investigative judges have been assigned to lead a judicial inquiry into attempted murder and other charges.
