Russians board International Space Station in Ukrainian colours
Russia's space agency has rejected claims that three Russian cosmonauts boarded the International Space Station wearing Ukrainian colours, in a possible statement against the war.
It is led by a US-Russian partnership that has continued for two decades despite fluctuating tensions between the two world powers. "It became our turn to pick a colour," Mr Artemyev said when he was asked about the suits in a live-streamed press conference. But Roscosmos's press service dismissed the reports as a "funny invention" by foreign bloggers and media.
