Russian and Belarusian individual athletes will be allowed to participate in the 2024 Summer Games under a neutral flag.

Individual athletes from Russia and Belarus are eligible to participate in the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris if they compete under a neutral flag. The International Olympic Committee (IOC) announced this on Friday.

According to the IOC, 11 ‘neutral’ athletes have qualified for the competitions so far, eight from Russia and three from Belarus. Athletes belonging to the military should remain excluded, as should teams from both countries. (AFP/sbe)
