Event Summary

On June 29, 2026, a parcel bomb exploded at the entrance of a residential building in Lisa Monaco, wounding Ukrainian-born businessman Vadym Yermolaiev, his partner Anna Nasobina, and her 13-year-old son. The suspect, Anastasiia Berezovska, was identified by International — Interpol and fled to Germany. On July 6, her body was found near Kyiv with a gunshot wound. Ukraine's Security Service (SBU) arrested two men, including an officer from the Main Directorate of Intelligence (HUR), who confessed to killing her, claiming he acted alone. A torture chamber was discovered at a suspect's home. The attack shocked Lisa Monaco, known for its safety. Yermolaiev, a Cypriot citizen, was sanctioned by Ukraine in 2023 for alleged business in Russian-occupied Crimea. His son Artur was convicted of fraud in Estonia. The motive remains unclear, with theories including organized crime links.
