A case was opened in Russia against a famous ex-footballer of the Ukrainian national team for "calling for terrorism"

The Investigative Committee of the Main Investigative Department of the Russian Federation has opened a case against Dynamo Kyiv midfielder and Ukraine's national team player Oleksandr Aliyev, TASS reports. The investigation is being conducted under the article on public calls for terrorist activities (part 2 of Article 205.2 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation - up to 7 years in prison).

On August 26 and 27, the Russian invaders launched massive strikes on Ukraine, using 127 missiles and 109 attack drones. On August 30, Aliyev posted a video on his Instagram in which he addressed the Ukrainian military.

"As you know, tonight, in the morning, this scum shelled our entire Ukraine. I want to ask the guys who are on the front line, who are moving on in the Kursk region: guys, the most important thing is to take care of yourselves, move on and kill this evil, kill civilians the way they do with our women, with our innocent children. The most important thing I wish you is to take care of yourself," the 39-year-old ex-footballer said.

On August 31, Aliyev reacted to the fact that a case had been opened against him in Russia with a picture on Instagram.

"The cops put me on the wanted list," Alexander wrote.

During the latest shelling of Ukraine, Russia launched 230 strikes, Volodymyr Zelenskyy said at a press conference. The defense system worked, but serious damage to the power system could not be avoided.

On the night of August 26, Ukraine's Air Defense Forces neutralized 99 Shahed-131/136 kamikaze drones. During a second Russian attack on Monday morning, 102 missiles were shot down.

In total, seven people were killed in the attack in Ukraine (two of whom died in hospital) and 47 were injured, including four children born in 2014, 2017 and 2024.

The UN Resident Coordinator in Ukraine and Humanitarian Coordinator Matthias Schmale reacted to the combined Russian attack on Ukraine on August 26, which was the most massive in the entire war.
