Ukrainian women's saber fencing national team presented by Olha Kharlan, Alina Komashchuk, Olena Voronina and Yulia Bakastova have found themselves in a unpleasant situation after arriving at a training camp in Japan.

During the flight, the team made a transfer in Paris, where all their belongings were lost, including fencing gear. For a week, Ukrainians have been trained sporting another people's uniform, starting from sneakers to fencing suits.

At the training camp in Japan, the Ukrainian saber-fencers are preparing for the World Cup, which will be held in Wuxi, China, on July 19.
