This is what the dev portal writes about.by with reference to former employees of the company. According to him, in August Belka Games fired over 50 people.

The main reductions took place in offices located in Russia and Belarus. Also, employees of the Lithuanian division, who had previously moved to Vilnius from Minsk, fell under the distribution.

It is reported that Belka Games started thinking about layoffs shortly after the conflict between Russia and Ukraine broke out in February — because of it, it became more difficult for the company to work in the Russian and Belarusian markets. Also among the reasons mentioned are rising inflation in the world and problems in mobile game development in general.
