IIHF ordered to allow Russia back into world championships

The Court of Arbitration for Sport has ruled that Russian teams must be allowed to take part in international ice hockey tournaments. The IIHF had banned Russia following the country's full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

國際體育仲裁法庭推翻了國際冰球聯合會禁止俄羅斯參加2026-27賽季賽事的決定，認為其安全擔憂缺乏充分證據。俄羅斯表示歡迎，而國際冰球聯合會、德國主辦方及烏克蘭方面均表達失望與反對。
