Russian athletes return home after taking part in Winter Olympics

(26 Feb 2018) Russian athletes who participated in the Winter Games in Pyeongchang were on Monday welcomed by cheering supporters upon their return to Moscow. A group of cheering fans waved flowers and flags and cheered on the athletes as they arrived for a short briefing at the airport. Russian athletes were competing under a neutral flag, and won 17 medals in South Korea - two gold, six silver and nine bronze. The gold medals went to Russian figure skater Alina Zagitova and the men's ice hockey team. The ice hockey team defied International Olympic Committee rules by belting out the anthem at their medal ceremony following Sunday's 4-3 overtime win against Germany in the gold medal game.   The IOC said on Monday it wouldn't derail Russia's imminent return from a doping suspension.
