"Two of the Indian players have been affected and lost connection, when the outcome of the match was still unclear. "The Appeals Committee has examined all the evidence provided by Chess.com, as well as information gathered from other sources about this internet outage. After being informed of their considerations and in absence of an unanimous decision, and taken into account these unprecedented circumstances, as FIDE President I made the decision to award Gold Medals to both teams," he said. Srinath said the appeal was made stating it was due to a server crash of Cloudflare used by www.chess.com. The FIDE President's decision was welcomed by the Indian chess fraternity. Meanwhile, the finals between India and Russia began in the evening. The first match ended with a score of 3-3 with all the six games ending in a draw. The battle of two world champions in the fast chess format - women's world rapid champion from India K. Humpy and women's world blitz champion Kateryna Lagno was an absorbing game. Humpy, after securing an exchange advantage, sacrificed her queen for two bishops to have rooks against the Russian's queen. However, the clock was ticking against Humpy and on the 41st move, she missed out a winning line. Soon the game ended in a draw with perpetual checks by the Russian. All other games - Vidit Santosh Gujrathi vs Ian Nepomniachtchi, P. Harikrishna vs Vladislav Artemiev, D. Harika vs Alexandra Kosteniuk, R. Praggnannandha vs Alexey Sarana and Divya Deshmukh vs Polina Shuvalova - ended in a draw. In the second match, India brought in V. Anand and Sarin in the place of Harikrishna and Praggnanandha. The Russian team made three changes, bringing in <keyword id="4977457" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="daniil-dubov">Daniil Dubov</keyword>, Andrey Esipenko and Aleksandra Goryachkina and rested Sarana, Artemiev and Lagno. The first result in the second match was a draw between Gujarthi and Dubov. Soon Harika and Anand followed suit, drawing against Nepomniachtchi and Kosteniuk respectively. Then the net connectivity issued cropped up in Sarin vs Esipenko, Deshmukh vs Shuvalova and Humpy vs Goryachkina cropped. As regards Humpy vs Goryachkina, FIDE awarded the point to the Russian.

The International Chess Federation (FIDE) said in a <a href="https://www.fide.com/news/1650">statement</a> on Monday that grandmaster Sergey Karjakin is prohibited from playing in any competitions around the world for the next six months.The statement said that the International Chess Federation's Ethics and Disciplinary Commission had determined that Karjakin violated the governing body's ethics code, which says disciplinary action will be taken if the organization or chess itself has its reputation damaged. Karjakin wrote in a March 10 <a href="https://twitter.com/SergeyKaryakin/status/1502029166497124353?s=20&amp;t=4NKahF04VOFjS_e5rPM9Tg">tweet</a> that people had asked him if he supported <keyword id="11894337" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="russia" source="Orion">Russia</keyword>'s "special operation," referring to Putin's February 24 <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/putin-announces-military-assault-against-ukraine-in-surprise-speech-2022-2">televised war declaration</a>."I am on the side of Russia and my President," Karjakin <a href="https://twitter.com/SergeyKaryakin/status/1502029284227129350?s=20&amp;t=4NKahF04VOFjS_e5rPM9Tg">tweeted</a>. "No matter what happens, I will support my country in any situation without thinking for a second!"Karjakin said he had already lost invitations to Western tournaments. <h2>FIDE came out strongly against the Russian invasion</h2>Shortly after the invasion of Ukraine, FIDE voted unanimously to rebuke Russia, <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2022/03/02/fide-suspends-russia-chess-tournaments-ukraine/">according to the Washington Post</a>. Under the ruling, Russians were no longer allowed to compete under their own flag and this summer's upcoming Chess Olympiad would be moved from Moscow.The president of FIDE is Arkady Dvorkovich, who formerly served as the deputy prime minister under former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev.<div type="image" title="FIDE President Arkady Dvorkovich (far left) has ties to the Kremlin as a former deputy prime minister under former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev (center) and current President Vladimir Putin." height="1623" width="2500" msid="90383956" hostid="261"></div><a href="https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2022/03/chess-grandmasters-putin-russia-ukraine-war/">In an interview with Daniel King of Mother Jones</a>, Dvorkovich said he was against the Russian invasion."My thoughts are with Ukrainian civilians," Dvorkovich told King. "Wars do not just kill priceless lives. Wars kill hopes and aspirations, freeze or destroy relationships and connections."Those comments came after 28 Ukrainian chess grandmasters signed a letter demanding Dvorkovich's resignation, noting his ties to the Kremlin.<h2>Karjakin loses a potential shot of facing defending world champion</h2>Karjakin, who is ranked 18th in the world, will no longer participate in the Chess Candidates tournament to be held in Madrid in June, <a href="https://www.npr.org/2022/03/22/1087536712/russian-chess-champion-suspended">according to NPR</a>. The winner of that 8-player tournament is to play Norway's Magnus Carlsen, the defending world champion, next February."The statements by Sergey Karjakin on the ongoing military conflict in Ukraine has led to a considerable number of reactions on social media and elsewhere, to a large extent negative towards the opinions expressed by Sergey Karjakin," the International Chess Federation said in its statement on Monday.It continued: "The EDC Chamber finds, against the background given above, on the standard of comfortable satisfaction that the statements of Sergey Karjakin, which, by his own choice and presentation, can be connected to the game of chess, damage the reputation of the game of chess and/or FIDE.""The likelihood that these statements will damage the reputation of Sergey Karjakin personally is also considerable," the statement said.A number of Russian <keyword id="11893855" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="sports" source="Orion">sports</keyword> teams and athletes have faced various punishments or sanctions since Putin's forces attacked Ukraine in late February.
