Russian athletes should publicly denounce the war in Ukraine if they are to participate in the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, Kyiv mayor and former world boxing champion Vitali Klitschko tells AFP. "To every Russian athlete, tell your government, tell the President of Russia to stop this senseless war. If not, the Russian athletes can't participate in the Olympic Games." The mayor also invites Thomas Bach, president of the International Olympic Committee, to Kyiv and says his city needs "thousands" of additional generators, three days after another massive Russian attack targeting energy sites in Ukraine.
