What was the Olympics controversy

A debate sparked on social media when Italian boxer Angela Carini abruptly withdrew from her bout against Khelif during a women’s boxing match at Paris Olympics 2024. Carini’s decision came after enduring a flurry of punches.
Harry Potter author JK Rowling also shared an image from the match. In an X post she wrote “Could any picture sum up our new men’s rights movement better? The smirk of a male who’s knows he’s protected by a misogynist sporting establishment enjoying the distress of a woman he’s just punched in the head, and whose life’s ambition he’s just shattered. #Paris2024”.

What the leaked medical report state

As per a Redux report, the leaked medical report has been drafted by experts from the Kremlin-Bicetre Hospital in Paris and the Mohamed Lamine Debaghine Hospital in Algiers in June 2023. It describes Khelif’s biological traits, such as the existence of internal testicles and the lack of a uterus. The MRI report suggested the presence of a micropenis, resembling an enlarged clitoris, as per the report.
