According to a recent report from Reuters The national stadium of Donetsk was destroyed on January 3rd by a Russian missile attack. This arena served as the home of the Ukrainian Hockey League's HC Donbass team, which was once a member of the KHL.

"So it is that since the start of the war, the Russian occupiers have destroyed five ice stadiums," the federation said on its Telegram channel, naming them as the Druzhba venue in Donetsk, arenas in Mariupol and Melitopol, the Ice Palace in Sievierodonetsk and now the Altair arena in Druzhkivka.

Ukrainian Minister Dmytro Kuleba released the following statement:

"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.
