Monaco parcel bomb suspect found dead in Ukraine. A cross-border manhunt had been launched for Anastasiia Berezovska, a Ukrainian who officials believed had fled the city-state after planting the bomb in the entrance hall of a building on 29 June. The 39-year-old’s body was found with gunshot wounds to the head. Two people including a current officer within Ukraine’s Ministry of Defence have been detained on suspicion of murder. https://mediafaro.org/article/20260707-monaco-parcel-bomb-suspect-found-dead-in-ukraine?mf_channel=mastodon&action=forward #Ukraine #Berezovska #Yermolaiev

This assassination attempt on a pro-Russia Ukrainian oligarch smells like a false flag operation. At first look, the facts imply that the Ukrainian GRU tried to kill him. A bomb placed in an apartment lobby, probably remotely detonated rather than timed, resembles some past GRU hits on Russian assets. #Russia #ukraine #yermolaiev #hybridwarfare

But the details are weird. The target was a Crimean booze magnate, sanctioned by Ukraine but not part of the war effort. Ukraine normally targets military figures. The bomb was a can of bolts and nails. The Ukrainians use real bombs, not IEDs. And the attack was in Monaco, where Europe's rich elite normally feel safe. My bet? Russia trying to decrease EU support by framing Ukraine for terror attacks. Expect more ops like this as Putin gets more desperate. #Russia #yermolaiev #hybridwarfare
