Palestine urges International Olympic Committee to exclude Israel from Paris 2024 Olympics
Earlier this week, Israel sent around 88 athletes to the Olympics in the French capital, and their Olympic delegation includes the Israeli national football team.
The Paris 2024 will begin with an opening ceremony on the River Seine on Friday.
“The letter follows months of information delivered by the respective Palestinian sports bodies on the systematic and ongoing violations of the Olympic Charter and the FIFA statutes committed by the Israeli sports bodies and its members, including the Olympic Committee and the Israeli Football Association,” the POC said.
