IIHF takes 2023 Ice Hockey World Championships from Russia

The International Ice Hockey Federation says it has taken away Russia’s rights to host the 2023 World Championships as the number of barred Russian sports teams and performers and canceled events rises in response to Moscow’s unprovoked invasion of Ukraine.
Last month, the IIHF barred Russia and its close ally Belarus from the 2022 World Championships in response to the war in Ukraine.
