A bombing in Monaco leads to conflicting early reports about injuries to a woman described in some accounts as losing limbs in the blast. Multiple outlets refer to the Ukrainian businessman Vadym Yermolaiev, who is reported to be fighting for his life after the attempted assassination. Early reporting suggested that his wife, Anna Ermolaeva (also reported as Anna Yermolaiev), had suffered severe injuries, including claims that her feet or limbs were blown off. However, a Ukrainian outlet and subsequent coverage report that Anna Ermolaeva, 56, says she was not the injured woman described in those accounts and that she was not hurt in the attack. The Independent reports that the blast injures a woman and a child in addition to Yermolaiev. Meanwhile, the initial reports of the wife’s condition appear to have been based on information that was later contradicted. Police are also reported to be investigating aspects of Yermolaiev’s background, including alleged business and financial connections, though the extent and details of those links are not settled in the accounts provided. The case remains under investigation as injury reports are clarified.
