Shakhtar Donetsk owner donates $200k to Ukrainian skeleton racer after Olympic helmet ban
Shakhtar Donetsk owner Rinat Akhmetov donated over $200,000—equal to Ukraine's gold-medal prize money—to Vladyslav Heraskevych after he was disqualified from the Milano Cortina Winter Games for wearing a helmet honoring Ukrainian athletes killed in the war; the helmet violated IOC rules on political expression, CAS upheld the disqualification, and Zelenskiy praised the athlete.
