Driver, served in the Ukrainian battalion "Aidar". After the outbreak of full-scale war, he did not take part in combat operations. In March 2022, he tried to leave occupied Mariupol, but was detained. He was charged under a number of articles of the Criminal Code of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic. After the Russian Federation declared the DPR part of its territory, the charges were reclassified in accordance with the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation: Ermolinskii was accused of participating in the activities of a terrorist organisation, forcible seizure of power and receiving training for the purpose of carrying out terrorist activities. Human rights activists point out that he is a prisoner of war, so he should not have been prosecuted actually for participation in hostilities, and in addition, they consider the charges absurd. On 17 October 2025, Ermolinskii was sentenced to 20 years in a strict regime colony.
