Paralympic athletes will not be able to compete in breakdancing as the sport was excluded from this year's event — unlike in the Olympic Games, where it is set to kick off on Friday.
India's 3,000m steeplechase star Avinash Sable has lashed out at fans and users on social media who criticise and troll the athletes participating in the Paris Olympics 2024. Despite coming into the Olympics with high hopes of beating their Tokyo 2020 medal tally of seven, India have only managed to win five medals so far and look unlikely to meet that tally. Amidst the Games, several Indian athletes - such as archer Deepika Kumari and wrestler Antim Panghal - have suffered trolling on social media platforms like X. Avinash hit back at such fans.
Afghan B-Girl Manizha Talash, a member of the Refugee Olympic Team at the Paris 2024 Games, was disqualified after displaying the words "Free Afghan Women" on her cape during her breaking routine in the competition's pre-qualifiers on Friday. Talash, who resides in Spain, took to the floor with a powerful message, wearing a light blue cape emblazoned with the words "Free Afghan Women" in large white letters. The 21-year-old's protest was aimed at drawing global attention to the plight of women under Taliban rule in her homeland. However, her routine against India Sardjoe of the Netherlands ended in controversy when breaking's governing body, the World DanceSport Federation, announced her disqualification for violating Olympic rules prohibiting political statements on the field of play.

“What will the Sports Minister John Owen Enoh tell President Bola Tinubu now that Nigeria failed to win a single medal at the Paris Olympics?” That was the big question by the chairman of Gombe State Athletics Association, Shuiabu Gara-Gombe, on Friday, shortly after World Record holder, Tobi Amusan, failed to qualify for the final of the 100m hurdles event at the Paris Olympics.
Indian grappler Aman Sehrawat bagged a bronze medal in the men's 57kg wrestling at Paris Olympics on Friday. Aman surpassed PV Sindhu's record to become India's youngest medal winner, at 21 years and 24 days old.
Neeraj Chopra said that his mother spoke from her heart when she said that Pakistan athlete Arshad Nadeem was 'like her son' after Pakistan and India claimed the top two medals in men's javelin throw at the Paris Olympics 2024. Nadeem came up with a monster 92.97m throw to break the Olympic record and clinch the gold while Neeraj's season best 89.45m throw earned him the silver. After the event, Neeraj's mother - Saroj Devi - was asked about Nadeem winning the gold ahead of her son and she responded by saying that 'the one who got the gold is also like our son'. Neeraj said that his mother is not influenced by what's happening on social media and always speaks from her heart.
Grappler Aman Sehrawat provided a bronze medal to India in wrestling at the ongoing Paris Olympics but the focus will now shift to Reetika Hooda, who will be competing in the women's freestyle 76kg. India's medal tally after Aman's achievement rose to 6 (one silver and 5 bronze) and if Reetika manages to put an impressive show, India could equal its Tokyo Olympic feat of 7 medals which also happens to be the country's best performance in the Games history so far.
