Woman suspected in Monaco parcel bombing found dead in Ukraine, officials say

Ukrainian investigators have reported the death of Anastasiia Berezovska, a woman previously sought over a parcel bomb attack in Monaco that injured a wealthy Ukrainian-born businessman.

Ukrainian authorities say a woman suspected of being involved in a parcel-bomb attack in Monaco has been found dead in Ukraine. The BBC reported on July 7, 2026, that police had been searching for Anastasiia Berezovska, whose name had appeared in connection with the Monaco blast that injured a Ukrainian millionaire.

CNN, citing officials, reported that Berezovska’s body was found shot dead near Kyiv. The report said she had gunshot wounds to the head and that pistol casings were found nearby, according to Ukrainian police and the Office of the Prosecutor General.

Berezovska had been identified by Interpol in connection with the Monaco bombing, CNN reported. The woman is said to be 39, born in Ukraine and recently residing in Germany, and had been linked to the delivery of an explosive device that injured the businessman in Monaco, according to the reporting.

Ukrainian authorities said they detained two men in connection with Berezovska’s death. CNN reported that prosecutors described the killing as carried out “by prior conspiracy,” and said investigators were also working to identify other people behind the case.

CNN further reported details of the investigation into Berezovska’s movements and communications. The report said Berezovska arrived in Ukraine on July 1 and communicated with her family and with the two men. It also said investigators learned that both men made bank transfers and cryptocurrency payments to Berezovska, which prompted police to treat them as potentially involved in the attempted murder linked to the Monaco case.

According to the CNN account, police said one of the detained men was a current employee of Ukraine’s Main Intelligence Directorate and that he confessed to the killing of Berezovska. CNN reported that prosecutors and police said he alleged the second suspect, described as a former law enforcement officer, was an accomplice. The report also said police found a room in the second suspect’s residence that resembled a torture chamber.

Investigators said urgent search measures were carried out after they began treating the detained men as potentially connected to the Monaco-related investigation, CNN reported. Prosecutors said law enforcement authorities were working to determine the instigators and other figures involved, the report added, as officials continue the broader inquiry tied to the earlier Monaco blast.

The case now shifts from the search for Berezovska over the Monaco attack to the prosecution of suspects linked to her death and to determining whether additional participants played roles in the Monaco bombing, according to the reporting. Authorities have not been described in the supplied materials as publicly releasing final charges, and the precise operational links between the Monaco parcel bombing and the circumstances in Ukraine remain part of an ongoing investigation, the reports indicate.

Why It Matters

  • The Monaco bombing case, which involves cross-border criminal investigation and international cooperation, has now turned to prosecuting suspects in Ukraine following Berezovska’s death.
  • Berezovska’s identification by Interpol and the subsequent domestic investigation highlight how international alerts can trigger sustained investigative work across jurisdictions.
  • The investigation into Berezovska’s death includes allegations of prior conspiracy and claims of a broader network, which could affect timing and scope of prosecutions.
  • Details about payments and communications during Berezovska’s time in Ukraine could be used as evidence in court to establish motives and connections to the Monaco incident.
