Gaza amputees boycott Adidas over Israeli soldier
Palestinian athletes in the Gaza Strip have rejected Adidas’s partnership with an Israeli soldier in a promotional campaign, considering it biased in favor of the killers and a disregard for the victims of Israeli aggression, particularly amputees. The website launched a 50% discount campaign on a single shoe featuring an Israeli soldier who participated in the 2021 Gaza assault, which sparked anger and calls for boycott, especially given the deteriorating conditions of amputee athletes. According to WHO estimates, there are between 5,000 and 6,000 amputations since October 2023, including 18% children, amid a lack of rehabilitation services. Sports figures emphasized the need to oppose such policies, which are viewed as racist and inhumane.
