In early December 2025, the KGB designated the "Butelek Warehouse" initiative an "extremist group." Among those named as involved were Sergei Salash and Zmitser Babitsky. Babitsky and Salash had previously participated in election campaigns, ran for parliament, and collected signatures for opposition candidates. In the 2010s, they withdrew from politics and focused solely on business and public activities.
The KGB also stated that Valentin Bakhtinov, Alexandra Vishnevskaya, Anastasia Tereshko, Valeria Belskaya, Yuri Dushin, Olga Strelkovskaya, Kirill Skobeiko, Dmitry Kovalenok, and Sergei Statkevich were involved in the initiative.
