The investigation into the high-profile Monaco bombing has taken a lethal turn, with the primary suspect found shot dead in Ukraine, hours before she could be brought to justice. Anastasiia Berezovska, a 39-year-old Ukrainian national, was discovered with gunshot wounds near Kyiv, a discovery that has plunged the international probe into chaos.

The development comes just days after Interpol issued a Red Notice for Berezovska, who was accused of planting a booby-trapped explosive device that seriously injured prominent Ukrainian-born businessman Vadym Yermolaiev, his partner, and their child. In an extraordinary twist, the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) has confirmed the arrest of two men in connection with the killing: an active officer within Ukraine's military intelligence agency (HUR) and a former law enforcement official.
