After several years of frozen war, the Russians attacked Ukraine openly again. Vladimir Putin’s army has been destroying more cities and murdering civilians for almost three weeks. And although the tragedy takes place in front of the whole of Europe, it does not move everyone. The fans of Hellas Verona lacked sensitivity, who hung a scandalous and simply disgusting banner.
The banner shows the flags of Russia and Ukraine, and the coordinates of Naples, which suggests that this should be another target of Russian aggression.
Among the fans of Hellas there are far-right ultras who – especially in the 90s – flaunted with flags with Celtic crosses and swastikas. . Why?
In some circles, the number “88” represents the slogan of Heil Hitler. The letter H is the eighth letter of the alphabet, so 88 stands for HH, which is Heil Hitler. “One of us” or “Honor” – such comments were posted in Praszelik’s new T-shirt post.

Campania, where Naples is located, is one of the poorest regions in Italy, a. This is where the Camorra recruits its troops.
Napoli must watch out for Hellas also on the pitch
Napoli will face Hellas on Sunday. It is an important game for Luciano Spalletti’s side as they are only seven points behind Milan, but the Serie A leader has played two more games. Hellas is a typical league average, but he can put himself better. The team of Praszelik and Paweł Dawidowicz (both heal injuries) is ninth in the table.
