Informs Freedom Matrix. This is stated in the message of the representative office on Twitter.

"On the occasion of the first anniversary of the liberation of Serpents' Island by the defenders of Ukraine, we call on Russia to take its 'goodwill gesture' to the next level and get out of all Ukrainian territory. Now!", - the message says.

Recall that the Russian army captured Serpent Island on the first day of a full-scale invasion of Ukraine on February 24.

On June 30, 2022, OK Yug reported that the Ukrainian military successfully carried out another stage of the operation on Zmeiny Island, as a result of which the Russians hastily evacuated the remnants of the garrison by two speedboats and presumably left the island. The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation called the evacuation of its own troops from the island "a goodwill gesture."

Then they reported that Serpentine Island was returned under the control of Ukraine, and the state flag was delivered to it by helicopter.
