"I invite all sports officials who want to allow Russian athletes to compete in international events because, as they say, 'politics should be kept out of sports', to visit the Altair ice arena in Druzhkivka ruined by Russia's 'politically neutral' shelling," Kuleba wrote.
It's alleged that the Russian Military is targeting Ukraine's sporting events.
