Yormlaev blames Ukrainian military intelligence for Monaco assassination attempt
Ukrainian businessman Vadym Yormlaev stated that the June 29 assassination attempt against him in Monaco utilized a rare military explosive exclusive to Ukraine’s Main Intelligence Directorate (HUR), according to an interview with Ukrainska Pravda published on August 31.
Ukrainian businessman Vadym Yormlaev has accused the Ukrainian military intelligence agency, the Main Intelligence Directorate (HUR), of providing the rare explosive used in his June 29 assassination attempt in Monaco. According to Yormlaev, HUR officer Vladyslav Reut, who is suspected in the murder of Anastasia Berezovska, is directly linked to the explosives.
Yormlaev believes Berezovska did not act alone, suggesting Reut could have obtained the military-grade explosives via his department in the intelligence agency. The rare explosive, which leaves severe chemical burns, cannot be bought or used by regular military forces. After the explosion, Yormlaev contacted HUR officials, who were investigating the matter internally. French media reported that the victims were all members of the same Ukrainian family.
