Donald Trump, Elon Musk and J. K. Rowling were among those who posted misinformation about Imane Khelif.
The International Olympic Committee spokesperson Mark Adams made it very clear that Algerian boxer Iman Khelif, who won a controversial match the day before, was a woman and should be allowed to compete as such. "This is not a transgender case," the IOC spokesperson said.
Boudi said the boxer was targeted by a “misogynist, racist and sexist campaign” as she won gold in the women’s welterweight division, becoming a hero in her native Algeria and bringing global attention to women’s boxing.
