“They will probably be sent home in a couple of days, with a ban on returning to France and the Schengen zone for some period of time,” Parinov said.
He added that five Russians were injured as a result of clashes between football fans. They received minor injuries and have already left the hospital.
Earlier, the Russian consulate in Marseille reported that one Russian was facing imprisonment because he was accused of causing bodily harm with serious consequences.
In addition, the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) opened a disciplinary case against the Russian Football Union due to the behavior of fans at the European Championship match between the Russian and English national teams. The reason for this, according to UEFA, was the use of pyrotechnics by the Russians and riots at the stadium.
On June 10, the European Football Championship began in France. The day before, clashes between Russian and English fans occurred in Marseille, as a result of which 35 people were injured. The match between England and Russia ended in a draw.
