Cyrillic text should automatically be converted if properly formatted. Look at this page for reference on Cyrillic signs as HTML entities; W3 Schools Cyrillic text

You might also want to specify that your website is using UTF-8 by placing the meta-charset tag in the header section of your HTML;

<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
</head>

Correct. I have that in my proposed answer. – Thomas Darvik May 05 '18 at 22:35
The screenshot you attached shows code, not the rendered view. Are you not getting the cyrillic text in your view? – Thomas Darvik May 06 '18 at 11:14
at page i see cyrillic text, but in source code via browser - these symbols – Kir May 07 '18 at 00:21

Try to change the font in Chrome to one that you know supports Cyrillic. Have you tried the same debug in Firefox? – Thomas Darvik May 07 '18 at 07:07

Since you didn't put your code i assume that you didn't set the charset to utf-8.

Try Set HTTP header to UTF-8 using PHP
