A serving military intelligence officer was detained in connection with the woman\u2019s death, police have confirmed<\/strong><\/p>\n

A Ukrainian woman identified by Interpol as the main suspect in last week\u2019s bomb attack on millionaire Vadim Ermolaev<\/a> in Monaco has been found dead, Ukrainian police have confirmed. A serving foreign intelligence officer may have been involved in her killing.<\/p>\n

Anastasia Berezovskaya, 39, was placed<\/a> on an international wanted list on suspicion of planting the explosive device that seriously injured the Ukrainian-born businessman and members of his family in the European principality. Her death was first reported on Tuesday by Ukrainskaya Pravda, with an official statement corroborating the details.<\/p>\n

Ukrainian investigators said they checked Berezovskaya\u2019s contacts after she returned to the country on July 1. Among them were two men, a former law enforcement officer and a serving officer of the Ukrainian military intelligence agency (HUR). Both made crypto payment to the woman\u2019s account, which made them suspects in the Monaco bombing.<\/p>\n

When confronted, the HUR operative confessed that he and his partner murdered Berezovskaya. Her body with multiple gunshot wounds to the head and shell casings were discovered at the location one of the alleged killers revealed.<\/p>\n

The police said one of the suspects in the murder had a basement room that \u201cresembled a torture dungeon.\u201d<\/em> The authorities claim the HUR officer went rogue and did not report his payments to Berezovskaya to his superiors.<\/p>\n

Ukrainskaya Pravda said Berezovskaya last left Ukraine in March 2025. She reportedly had residency in Germany, where she obtained protection as a refugee several years ago, according to media reports. Interpol said she was fluent in German.<\/p>\n

French media said<\/a> investigators in Monaco suspected that the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) could have been involved in the bombing. The police statement identified the agency as a partner in its investigation and said the HUR collaborated with it as well.<\/p>\n

The CIA reportedly<\/a> invested millions of dollars following the 2015 armed coup in Kiev to rebuild the HUR from scratch, overhaul the SBU, and turn them into intelligence agencies focused on Russia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
