At the beginning of October 2022, in the Moscow district of the capital, unknown persons hung a white-red-white flag and the flag of Ukraine on a power line support. Only the next day a post appeared on Anton Mot’s Telegram channel with a photo of the flag and the caption: “Minsk residents congratulate the Ukrainian people on the wonderful news from the Crimean bridge. Crime is Ukraine! Long live Belarus! Glory to Ukraine!” During operational search activities, police officers detained six Minsk residents aged 34 to 36 years who allegedly did this. Including Vladimir.

Savelyev said in a pro-government video that the action was organized in support of Ukrainians: “This is support for civilians who are dying in an unnecessary war.”

On September 14, 2023, an appeal hearing was held. The verdict came into force.
