Explosão de 'pacote-bomba' deixa oligarca ucraniano e mais dois feridos em Mônaco

Os serviços de emergência de Mônaco foram mobilizados perto do local de uma explosão em um prédio residencial em Mônaco, próximo à fronteira com a França, em 29 de junho de 2026. Foto por AFP O oligarca ucraniano Vadim Irmolaiev e outras duas pessoas ficaram feridos em Mônaco, na noite desta segunda-feira (29), na explosão de um "pacote-bomba", a primeira ação desse tipo no principado, indicaram as autoridades. A explosão ocorreu por volta das 21h (16h no horário de Brasília) em um prédio residencial, próximo à fronteira com a França. ✅ Clique aqui para seguir o canal de notícias internacionais do g1 no WhatsApp O governo monegasco informou inicialmente sobre dois feridos em estado grave, um casal de 50 a 60 anos, e outro lesionado, um adolescente de 13 anos, sem revelar suas identidades. "Esta noite, pouco antes das 21h00, foi ouvida no Principado uma violenta explosão ligada a um pacote-bomba, não muito longe da Place des Moulins", publicaram as autoridades na rede social X. Uma fonte próxima ao caso assegurou à AFP, confirmando uma informação prévia da BFMTV, que o homem ferido é Irmolaiev, um oligarca ucraniano que reside em Mônaco. Agora no g1 Desde dezembro de 2023, o empresário está sujeito a sanções devido a uma decisão do Conselho Nacional de Segurança da Ucrânia promulgada pelo presidente Volodymyr Zelensky. Segundo vários veículos de imprensa, que citam os serviços de segurança ucranianos, essas sanções se devem à decisão do bilionário de continuar com suas atividades de comércio de álcool na península da Crimeia, sob ocupação russa. Por enquanto, a identidade das vítimas não foi confirmada por Mônaco, onde o procurador-geral, Stéphane Thibault, planejava conceder uma coletiva de imprensa nesta terça-feira, segundo o ministro de Estado (chefe de governo), Christophe Mirmand. Thibault disse à AFP que o artefato explosivo estava em uma bolsa ou pacote deixado por uma pessoa no saguão do edifício atingido, antes de sair do local. O jornal francês Le Figaro afirmou que imagens de câmeras de vigilância mostraram um homem largando uma mochila na entrada do prédio pouco antes da explosão. "É a primeira vez na história, que eu saiba, que ocorre um ato desse tipo no Principado", afirmou Mirmand. Denunciando "um crime atroz", o príncipe Albert II de Mônaco citou em um comunicado "um golpe para toda a comunidade monegasca" e reafirmou que "a segurança" do microestado europeu "sempre foi uma prioridade" e "continuará a sê-lo mais do que nunca, quaisquer que sejam as ameaças". As autoridades reforçaram as medidas de segurança no principado, já altamente protegido, anunciou o ministro Mirmand em uma breve aparição diante da imprensa nesta segunda. Os três feridos foram transferidos para a cidade francesa de Nice, a cerca de 20 km de Mônaco. A polícia procura pelo suspeito.

Oura Ring 5 review: a stunning generational leap for smart rings

Slimmer, longer lasting and much easier to live with, new Oura sets a very high new bar for health-tracking wearables

Oura’s new Ring 5 is a massive upgrade for smart rings, dramatically shrinking in size and weight to bring them right into line with standard wedding bands and other jewellery. It is finally a smart ring you can genuinely forget you’re wearing.

The Ring 5 is a straight replacement for the popular Ring 4 and costs from £399 (€399/$399/$A649), though it requires a £5.99 (€5.99/$5.99/A$9.99) a month subscription to access anything but basic daily metrics. An Oura is not a cheap proposition.

Queenie Is Working On It by Candice Carty-Williams review – a smart sequel to a breakout bestseller

Queenie’s ticking biological clock drives her chaotic misadventures in this sage and funny follow-up

A gynaecological examination is a good analogy for the kind of painful self-inspection at which Queenie Jenkins excels. The heroine of Candice Carty-Williams’s 2019 debut Queenie memorably begins that novel with a medical appointment for a mystery ailment that turns out to be a miscarriage. The sequel, Queenie Is Working on It, picks up the story eight years on, with the now 33-year-old Queenie back on the gurney, this time for a fertility checkup. “I didn’t realise they did condoms for anything other than … penises,” Queenie observes lamely as the unsmiling doctor sheaths a probe. Life has changed, but in many ways, Queenie has not.

Carty-Williams’s first novel about a stumbling Jamaican-British woman living in London, navigating romantic disaster and a mental health crisis, was a breakout bestseller. Reassuringly, her keen ear for female friendships – the deep affection, the stubborn solidarity, the ribald humour – endures, as does her understanding of how the particular experience of race suffuses the ordinary lives of Black women. These are the qualities that made Queenie feel unique and interesting in 2019. She remains so in 2026, but your patience for the new novel rather depends on your tolerance for her continued misadventures.

Why a surge in sexually transmitted infections in Europe should worry everybody | Peter Beyer

Drug-resistant bacteria are no longer confined to hospital settings but are spreading into communities in every country

Why should a surge in sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in Europe be a concern across Africa or for people who don’t consider themselves to be at risk? Because it points to a bigger problem: the ease with which drug-resistant infections are now spreading, and not just in hospitals but within the community too.

The speed and scale at which people travel and interact in our interconnected world is increasingly helping to drive this, allowing drug-resistant pathogens to move rapidly through populations and across the world – including between high-income countries and low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where the burden is often greatest and surveillance more limited.

Executioner review – sleazy MP hams it up with sex worker in darkly comic blackmail thriller

Based on actor-director Peter Benedict’s own play this tiny-budget thriller has the feel of a stagey recording as the double-crosses pile up higher than an MP’s promises

The fictional shadow cabinet minister at the centre of this darkly comic blackmail thriller is offended when the male prostitute he has hired describes his reputation as “colourful”. Colourful MPs support bloodsports and wear bow ties, he says; he prefers the term “maverick”. It’s never said out loud, but clearly he sits on the right in political terms; you can tell from the sneer in his voice as he utters the word “proletariat”.

Executioner is adapted by Peter Benedict from his play Deadlock, with a staginess that feels a bit much for the screen. Benedict also co-directs and stars as the MP, called Robert Marlowe, giving a lip-smacking performance that makes Hannibal Lecter look like a character from kitchen sink realism. The entire film is set in the basement studio of Marlowe’s country pile, where he dabbles in pottery while listening to Gilbert and Sullivan (there’s even an echo of The Mikado in the plot).
