Solved
I am on Artix linux with zathura version 0.5.1-1
The problem was in pdf backend. I believe it's a bug of zathura-pdf-mupdf backend, I installed poppler backend and problem was fixed.
Tho there's no package for poppler backend in artix repositories, so I downloaded it from mirror here

Arch Linux - zathura-pdf-poppler 0.3.0-1 (x86_64)

archlinux.org

and installed with
$ sudo pacman -U packagename.pkg.tar.zst
Also this was Desktop Environment independent. The bug was found in i3-gaps and I replicated it in xfce4
