After being unable to return to his former level and the World Cup, bar one race, after the end of the ban, Yaroshenko retired after the 2012–13 season.

Earlier in the season, he had finished third in the Summer Grand Prix events in Khanty-Mansiysk, on roller skis.

[citation needed] Yaroshenko was selected for the World Cup team from the opening race of the 2006–07 season, and with a flawless shooting he entered the podium in his second start of the season, 15.5 seconds behind winner Ole Einar Bjørndalen in a sprint race in Östersund.

Yaroshenko finished as runner-up in two more races before the Christmas break, and was second in the overall World Cup after two weeks of competition.

[citation needed] On 13 February 2009, the IBU announced Yaroshenko and teammates Ekaterina Iourieva and Albina Akhatova, tested positive for EPO during the World Cup in Östersund.
