Players from Syria, Afghanistan, and Zimbabwe battled it out at an event on Moscow's Red Square aimed at raising awareness about the plight of refugees. The UNHCR says there were 126,000 refugees in Russia in 2017, with the overwhelming majority from Ukraine. The UN body also said non-Ukrainian refugees faced "hampered access" to Russia's asylum system.
