Ukraine Oligarch's Alleged Mistress Reportedly Loses Both Legs in Monaco Bomb Attack, While Legal Wife Is Safe
The blast triggered a major investigation as authorities examine surveillance footage and forensic evidence while Nasobina remains in serious condition.
- On Monday, a parcel bomb exploded at a Monaco apartment block, critically injuring Ukrainian tycoon Vadym Iermolaiev and his partner Anna Nasobina, with a 13-year-old boy also injured in the blast.
- Once a real estate developer in Dnipro, Iermolaiev renounced his Ukrainian citizenship in 2018 and became a citizen of Cyprus, earning him a place in the satirical "Monaco battalion" of wealthy Ukrainians.
- Monaco's Prosecutor General Stéphane Thibault described it as an "attempted assassination," with authorities deploying 84 police officers and 50 firefighters as a lone suspect fled toward Beausoleil.
- Iermolaiev's wife, Anna Ermolaeva, clarified she was not present during the attack, stating the family is "actively cooperating with the investigation and law enforcement agencies" amid severe stress.
- Investigators are examining potential links to 2023 sanctions imposed by President Volodymyr Zelensky, while his son Artur Ermolaev was previously convicted in Estonia for operating fraudulent call centers.
