The executive committee of the Czech Ice Hockey Association decided to invite hockey players from the Russian KHL to the national team. Delivery of goods from e-shops can also take place on holidays, when sales are prohibited, this was confirmed definitively by the Supreme Administrative Court.
A new neighborhood is growing in Prague, the streets of which will primarily be named after women. And the International Festival of Film Music Soundtrack Podebrady begins.
In Italy, the occupation of the best places by the sea ends. According to the APA agency, anyone who keeps an umbrella, sunbed or towel overnight on a public beach will be punished by the police. The fine can go up to 1,000 euros, which is almost 25,000 crowns.
Today begins the International Festival of Film Music Soundtrack Podebrady. The representative of the Czech swing scene Jiří Ševčík & Pirate Swing Band will perform at the opening concert. Songs from popular Czech and international films will be played. Tomorrow there is a large-format screening of the Czech film fairy tale Lotrando and Zubejd with a live song soundtrack.
Czech hockey players from the KHL will not play for the national team. Following the example of its Swedish and Finnish colleagues, the executive committee of the Czech Ice Hockey Association decided on this. Players who signed or will sign a contract in the Russian hockey competition after the start of the invasion of Ukraine are out of luck. Currently, the regulation applies to two players: Dmitri Yashkin and Rudolph Cerveny. Michal Jordán and Libor Šulák also have contracts in the KHL, but they signed before the Russian invasion of Ukraine, so the door to the national team should not be closed.
