The Paris Olympics is scheduled to be held from July 26 to August 11 with over 10,500 athletes taking part.
In this edition of the Games, around 206 National Olympic Committees (NOCs) are set to compete besides the ‘Individual Neutral Athletes’ and the Refugee Olympic Team.
Owing to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the IOC banned Russian and Belarusian athletes from competing under their respective countries’ flags. Athletes from these regions can compete as ‘Individual Neutral Athletes’, as long as they do not actively support the conflict.
