"From March 1, 2024, an order will come into force to block VPN services providing access to sites banned in Russia," Sheikin was quoted as saying by state news agency RIA.

I assume this means it's regarding outgoing communications, for censorship purposes most likely. I'd be surprised if they were blocking incoming VPN traffic, and I don't think the Russian government has an issue with Yandex operating.
