According to open sources, he took direct part in Russia's full-scale military invasion of Ukraine.

The dossier also contains information about his education.

On May 7, 2022, the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine (GUR) included him (with an exact match of birth date and indication of personal and service numbers) in a list of officers of the 71st Guards Motorized Rifle Regiment, withdrawn from combat positions to guard the parade of Russian troops in occupied Mariupol; the list was also published by the "Myrotvorets" Center on the same day.

Realii" (Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty), there is also a version of his death on March 29, 2022 — this date contradicts both the GUR record from May 7, 2022, and the death date of June 10, 2022, indicated in the dossier; the discrepancy in sources has not been resolved.
