Algerian boxer Imane Khelif, who won a gold medal at the 2024 Summer Olympics, was banned from the World Boxing Organization (WBO) because she isn't a woman.

Khelif, a biological female who faced transphobic attacks regarding her physical appearance and gender during last summer's Paris Olympics, was singled out in the organization's announcement.

Imane Khelif, the boxer at the center of the Olympic gender controversy, is skipping a boxing tournament in the Netherlands after World Boxing announced mandatory sex testing for all athletes.
