Global outrage as Olympic star Artem Dolgopyat and Israel gymnasts banned from World Championships even after Gaza war ceasefire
Indonesia has denied visas to Olympic gold medalist Artem Dolgopyat and the Israeli gymnastics team for the World Artistic Gymnastics Championships in Jakarta. Citing a lack of diplomatic ties and support for Palestine, the decision has drawn strong criticism from the International Olympic Committee, which deems it a violation of fair play. The Israeli team is now unable to compete.
