UKRAINE INVASION
Swedish bandy players will boycott world championship in Russia
Swedish players will not attend the world cup in bandy later this year to protest Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
The men's Bandy World Championship is slated to take place this October in Irkutsk, near Russia's border with Mongolia.
The chairman of the Swedish Bandy Association says boycotting the tournament is a way for the association to show its support for Ukraine.
