On June 29, around 21:00, three people were injured in an explosion in Monaco, two of whom sustained very serious injuries. According to media reports, the victims were a major Ukrainian businessman Yermolaev and his relatives.
Vadim Yermolaev is a businessman from Dnipro, founder of the "Alef" trade and production corporation and one of the largest developers in the city. He was regularly included in Forbes' list of the 100 richest people in Ukraine. In 2019, he renounced Ukrainian citizenship in favor of a Cypriot passport.
In 2023, the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine imposed sanctions against him for a period of 10 years. According to Ukrainian authorities, these measures were related, in particular, to accusations that part of his business continued its activities in annexed Crimea after 2014.
Yermolaev himself publicly denied these accusations.
Yermolaev's eldest son, Artur, created a network of fraudulent call centers that defrauded EU residents.
