Anastasia Berezovska, 39, is wanted for planting a remote-controlled bomb in a Monaco building that wounded oligarch Vadym Yermolayev and his family. She disguised herself as a man, escaped to France and then Italy, and evaded a police raid on her Frankfurt apartment minutes before officers arrived, according to reports.
This afternoon, new details emerged in the Monaco bombing case first reported by The Zioneer on Tuesday. According to reports, the suspect, Anastasia Berezovska, 39, disguised herself as a man, fled to Italy, and evaded a police raid on her Frankfurt apartment by minutes. She is now classified as an armed and dangerous fugitive under an international arrest warrant, with a manhunt spanning multiple European countries.
Earlier today at 11:43 Jerusalem, The Zioneer reported that Interpol had identified Berezovska as the suspect wanted for planting a remote-controlled explosive device in Monaco that seriously wounded Ukrainian oligarch Vadym Yermolayev and his family. In a series of updates published at the same time, The Zioneer also reported that Interpol had issued a search request for the suspect, and that Monaco authorities initially said the bomb was planted by a woman.
The attack, which occurred on Monday night, June 29, injured seven people, including Yermolayev, his wife, and their 13-year-old son. Monaco's Minister of State Christophe Mirmand described it as "probably a terrorist attack" and the first of its kind in the principality, as The Zioneer reported on Tuesday.
The manhunt for Berezovska continues, with authorities in multiple countries involved. The suspect's motive remains unclear.
