9/16/2013 – The World Junior Chess Championship 2013 in Turkey was moved from the border of Syria to as far from the war-torn country as possible. 118 players turned up for the open group, and 77 for the section reserved for girls. Three rounds have been played, and former Junior World Champion (and daredevil ChessBase reporter) Alexander Ipatov leads the open section with 3.0/3. Big pictorial with videos.

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 misslie
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.
