A Ukrainian woman who is suspected in a bomb attack in Monaco this week was disguised as a man, Monaco's deputy prosecutor said. 

Anastasiia Berezovska, 39, is accused of leaving a package on the entrance hall of an apartment building. She then allegedly fled the area on foot and drove to Germany, the BBC reported

Ukrainian construction magnate Vadym Yermolaiev, his partner and his 13-year-old son were severely injured in the attack. The explosion happened just as the three entered the building. Yermolaiev was targeted by Ukrainian sanctions in 2023 for allegedly having ties to Russia. He has an estimated net worth of $230 million, according to Forbes. 

An Interpol Red Notice has been issued for Berezovska, who is wanted for attempted murder, placing an explosive device on a public road with criminal intent, and criminal conspiracy.
