In February 2004, two foreign students from Ecuador were beaten up in Belgorod. According to the victims, the reason for the beating was that they were seeing off the Slavic girls.
This became known only in June 2004, when the beating and robbery of another foreigner, a citizen of Yemen, actualized the topic of the activity of neo-Nazi groups in Belgorod.
