The attack in Monaco injured three people, including Iermolaiev, and was the first recorded bombing in Monaco\u2019s history. Berezovska disguised herself as a man during the attack and fled to France and Italy. Ukrainian security services claimed Berezovska was connected to two men, one a Ukrainian military intelligence officer and the other a former law enforcement official, who transferred money to her and may be involved as accomplices. Berezovska\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >body showed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/calif-firefighter-sets-fire-to-own-home-after-opening-fire-on-co-workers\/\" title=\"Calif. firefighter sets fire to own home after opening fire on co-workers\">multiple gunshot wounds<\/a><\/a>, and her death was reportedly confided by a Ukrainian military intelligence officer without oversight. Iermolaiev, a wealthy Ukrainian businessman wiht a diverse portfolio, was sanctioned in Ukraine for alleged activities in Crimea but denies these claims. He has publicly condemned Russia\u2019s war against Ukraine. The motives behind the attack remain unclear, and the incident has ignited an international manhunt.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<article class=\"fn-body\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A woman suspected of carrying out a bomb attack in Monaco was found shot dead in <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/ukraine\/\">Ukraine<\/a> on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The woman, identified as 39-year-old Ukrainian national Anastasiia Berezovska, carried out a suspected <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/assassination\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"17740\">assassination attempt<\/a> against Ukrainian business tycoon Vadym Iermolaiev on June 30.<\/p>\n<section class=\"explore-more-section\" id=\"wex-recommended-widget\">\n<div class=\"magazine-container single\">\n<h1 class=\"magazine-title mt-2\">Recommended Stories<\/h1>\n<p>             <i class=\"fa-solid fa-play icon\"><\/i>         <\/div>\n<div class=\"explore-grid\">\n<div class=\"explore-card\">                         <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/justice\/4638738\/dc-pipe-bomber-ineligible-trump-jan-6-pardon-judge\/?itm_source=parsely-api\">                             <\/p>\n<div class=\"explore-thumb-wrap\">                                                                                                                                  <\/div>\n<h3>Suspected DC pipe bomber ineligible for Trump\u2019s Jan. 6 pardon: Judge<\/h3>\n<p>                         <\/a>                     <\/div>\n<div class=\"explore-card\">                         <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/crime\/4638589\/andrew-gillum-arrest-drug-charge\/?itm_source=parsely-api\">                             <\/p>\n<div class=\"explore-thumb-wrap\">                                                                                                                                  <\/div>\n<h3>Former DeSantis foe Andrew Gillum arrested on drug charges<\/h3>\n<p>                         <\/a>                     <\/div>\n<div class=\"explore-card\">                         <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/justice\/4638446\/watch-live-hearings-resume-tyler-robinson-accused-killing-charlie-kirk\/?itm_source=parsely-api\">                             <\/p>\n<div class=\"explore-thumb-wrap\">                                                                                                                                  <\/div>\n<h3>WATCH LIVE: Hearings resume for Tyler Robinson in case of Charlie Kirk\u2019s killing<\/h3>\n<p>                         <\/a>                     <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The body of Berezovska was discovered by the Ukrainian Security Service, known as the SBU, which said an officer in Ukraine\u2019s <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/military\/\">military intelligence<\/a> agency confessed to killing Berezovska without informing his superiors, <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/news.sky.com\/story\/woman-suspected-of-carrying-out-monaco-bombing-of-ukrainian-tycoon-found-dead-13561246\"><em>Sky News<\/em> reported<\/a>.
