In the Voronezh region, teachers from seven schools, following a false order, organized the "Helmet of the Fatherland" campaign, during which they made and put on tinfoil hats - for "protection from the effects of NATO satellites." The author of the prank was Belarusian prankster Vladislav Bokhan, who sent out "orders" on behalf of "United Russia."
