"In a preliminary women’s under 66kg boxing match at the Paris Olympics last
week between Algerian Imane Khelif and Italian Angela Carini, a powerful punch
to the face resulted in Carini withdrawing after 46 seconds.
Carini dissolved into tears, crying “this is unfair”, and “I have never been
hit so hard in my life”.
Almost immediately, journalists and commentators jumped to Carini’s defence,
raising questions about International Olympic Committee (IOC) policies and
making many false assertions about Khelif’s gender identity."
