Descrição

Participants attend the King Salman World Rapid and Blitz Championships, the first international chess competition held in Saudi Arabia, in the capital Riyadh on December 26, 2017. The Israel Chess Federation said today it is seeking compensation from the organisers of a tournament in Saudi Arabia, after the Gulf state refused to issue visas for its players. The regulations of the organisers, the World Chess Federation , stipulate that no player should be refused the opportunity to participate, but players from three states -- Iran, Qatar, and Israel, had initially not received visas. / AFP PHOTO / STRINGER Get premium, high resolution news photos at getty
