Russian prima ballerina Anastasia Volochkova participated in activities at the Northern Military District aid headquarters. This involvement was noted on a Telegram channel called Puree.

Volochkova indicated that there could be future travel to additional regions as part of a propaganda team, signaling a willingness to engage in public messaging efforts. The dancer was among the early supporters of a campaign to collect humanitarian aid intended for Donbass, aligning with broader relief initiatives. Media commentary suggests that her participation may have been influenced by a recent controversial video involving Nikita Dzhigurda.

Earlier, at an online event, a video circulated showing Volochkova dancing with Dzhigurda to a song performed by Uspenskaya. During the performance, the actor knelt and allegedly removed the dancer’s trousers, which led Volochkova to claim that Dzhigurda had organized the provocation in advance and that she would not consider him a friend again.

In past statements, Anastasia Volochkova has articulated sentiments about giving herself meaningful acknowledgments or gifts, underscoring a personal perspective on self-appreciation and career milestones.
