In 2017, the organization also came under criticism from the [[Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Kyiv Patriarchate]], which called its activities "destructive". The church's diocese described AllatRa as a "psychocult". AllatRa has been criticized by the [[BBC News]] in 2022 for its claims that the impact of greenhouse gases on [[climate change]] is negligible.<ref>{{Cite news |last1=Silva |first1=Marco |last2=Thomas |first2=Merlyn |date=April 25, 2022 |title=How high-profile scientists felt tricked by group denying climate change |url=https://www.bbc.com/news/blogs-trending-61166339 |access-date= |work=[[BBC News]] |language=en-GB}}</ref> Some Ukrainian media outlets said that AllatRa may be a second coming of [[White Brotherhood (religious group)|White Brotherhood]] cult,<ref>{{Cite web |last=Levashvili |first=Olga |date=April 1, 2016 |title=АллатРа: нове вбрання короля |url=https://zn.ua/ukr/SOCIUM/allatra-nove-vbrannya-korolya-_.html |access-date= |website=[[Dzerkalo Tyzhnia]] |language=uk}}</ref> ''Babel'' said that AllatRa's ideas are similar to those of the cult.<ref>{{Cite web |last1=Rayevskyi |first1=Dmytro |last2=Kobernyk |first2=Kateryna |date=August 28, 2023 |title=The pro-Russian sect wanted to tell the world about the imminent apocalypse, and also about the great leader Putin |url=https://babel.ua/en/texts/97747-the-pro-russian-sect-wanted-to-tell-the-world-about-the-imminent-apocalypse-and-also-about-the-great-leader-putin-and-it-did-with-the-leading-ukrainian-media-helping-it-what-yes-it-hurts |access-date= |website=Babel.ua |language=en}}</ref>

In November 2023, [[Security Service of Ukraine|Ukraine's Security Service]] (SBU) and National Police conducted raids and searches across multiple regions, blocking over 20 centers of the AllatRa accused of collaborating with Russian special services, spreading pro-Kremlin propaganda to justify Russia's aggression in the Russo-Ukrainian war, and promoting a "union of Slavic peoples" under Moscow's leadership.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Ukraine's Security Service shuts down 20 centers of Kremlin-linked AllatRa religious organization|url=https://rubryka.com/en/2023/11/02/sbu-zablokuvala-diyalnist-antyukrayinskoyi-psevdoreligijnoyi-sekty-allatra/|website=Rubryka|date=2023-11-02|access-date=2026-01-22|first=|last=}}</ref><ref name=":7" /><ref>{{Cite web|title=Cells in Ukraine of sect linked to Russian intelligence services broken up by SBU and police|url=https://english.nv.ua/nation/sbu-and-police-disrupt-allatra-sect-s-activities-amid-allegations-of-russian-collaboration-50365312.html|website=NV|access-date=2026-01-22|language=en}}</ref> SBU seized documents, weapons, and books from the series ''[[Project Russia]]'' from AllatRa's offices.<ref name=":2" /><ref name=":7" />

Subsequent [[lawsuit]] by the [[Ministry of Justice (Ukraine)|Ukrainian Ministry of Justice]] to formally ban and dissolve the organization (Case No. 640/362/23) was rejected by the Kyiv District Administrative Court in April 2025 due to procedural issues and insufficient evidence of national security threats.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Єдиний державний реєстр судових рішень|url=https://reyestr.court.gov.ua/Review/126371842|website=reyestr.court.gov.ua|access-date=2026-01-22}}</ref> The Ministry appealed the ruling.
