"The war has caused heavy losses. We will rebuild the destroyed stadiums and sports palaces, but no one will return 154 lives of our athletes and coaches. They died on the battlefield, in their homes from hostile shells," the official said. According to the Minister of Sports, Russia and its allies should be responsible for all crimes committed.
