Podmoskovie Stadium, situated in the suburb of Shchelkovo some 15 km from the centre of Moscow, is one of the oldest stadia in Russia. The Russian word Podmoskovye means "Moscow Region". Built in 1928, it underwent a refurbishment in 2003 to modernise its facilities. As part of the preparations for the 2006 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Championship, the stadium received new seating areas, improved floodlighting and brought its VIP and press areas in line with international standards.

2017 Ivanteyevka school shooting
2017 Ivanteyevka school shooting

The 2017 Ivanteyevka school shooting was a school shooting and attempted bombing that occurred in Ivanteyevka in Moscow Oblast on the morning of September 5, 2017. When ninth-grader Mikhail Pivnev entered the building of "Educational Center No. 1", where he was a student and opened fire from an air rifle, and then detonated homemade explosive devices. As a result of the attack, four people were injured - an IT teacher, whom the teenager hit in the head with a cleaver and shot in the face, as well as three school students who jumped out of the window of the educational institution. Pivnev was detained by law enforcement officers. A psychological and psychiatric examination established the teenager's sanity at the time of the attack. On February 15, 2019, the Ivanteevsky City Court of the Moscow Region, having found the "Ivanteevsky shooter" guilty of attempted murder of two or more persons and hooliganism, sentenced him to 7 years and 3 months of imprisonment in a correctional colony, and also imposed an additional penalty in the form of a fine of 20 thousand rubles. Among other things, the court satisfied the victims' claims for compensation for material and moral damages in the total amount of more than 2 million rubles. The Ivanteyevka incident was the first time in Russian history that an attack on an educational institution was carried out by a copycat of Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, the perpetrators of the Columbine High School massacre on April 20, 1999. The incident, as well as the fact that the attacker was inspired by the actions of American mass murderers, caused a wide public outcry and led to the emergence of a number of legislative initiatives: in particular, a federal law was passed banning “Columbine communities” on social networks and other Internet resources that incite children to commit suicide and commit crimes. Similar incidents would follow: on 19 January in Ulan-Ude, 18 April in Sterlitamak, on 15 January 2018 in Perm, on 19 January of the same year in Ulan-Ude, on 18 April in Sterlitamak. And May 28, 2019 in Volsk.
