In May 22 earlier this year the Turkish Chess Federation announced that the World Junior Chess Championship for boys and girls would be held in the city of Hatay, Turkey. Many chess players and federations were unhappy with this decision, as Hatay is a mere 20 kilometers away from the Syrian border – a stone's throw away from Aleppo. With accusations of the Syrian government engaging in chemical warfare, and the threat of US missile strikes, the TCF decided to change the venue of the tournament to Kocaeli, which is as far away from Syria as you can get in Turkey.

11-year-old Bibissara Assaubayeva from Kazakhstan
Aleksandra Goryachkina has moved into the sole lead at round eleven with 8.5. She has hot competition on her tail though.
13-year-old Zhansaya Abdumalik from Kazakhstan has moved into second with 8.0/11, making the girl's section a battle of the prodigies. Although she is still listed as a WIM, she already has three WGM norms, the second youngest in history, only two months older than Hou Yifan's record.
