The Paris Olympics will take place from July 26 to August 11, featuring over 10,500 athletes. Around 206 National Olympic Committees (NOCs) are expected to participate, along with ‘Individual Neutral Athletes’ and the Refugee Olympic Team.
Due to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has banned Russian and Belarusian athletes from competing under their national flags. However, athletes from these countries can participate as ‘Individual Neutral Athletes’ provided they do not actively support the conflict.
