Athletistic / Boxing. Coach Edilbay Kaziev, who worked with former European boxing champion Artyom Chebotarev, said that the athlete went to the SVO zone. According to the coach, the decision was voluntary and the boxer was dissuaded from going to the war zone.

Earlier, Chebotarev announced on his Telegram channel his decision to go to the zone of the Northern Military District. It is noteworthy that in September 2022, the former athlete was elected to the Saratov Regional Duma.

“Artyom left to serve in the Northern Military District about a week ago and is now in the Donetsk direction. You know, he is very worried about his homeland and always adheres to a clear civic position. Many dissuaded him from such a step, but. Artyom, in that situation, listened only to his heart. Maybe it sounds strong, but it’s true, this feeling was in him, and then he finally matured,” Kaziev was quoted as saying by RIA Novosti.
