Syrian Refugee Team Debuts at Asian Games
Two Syrian athletes, Tala Al-Hassan Al-Hanida and Mahmoud Al-Jassim Al-Mohammad Al-Hussein, participated for the first time in the history of the Asian Games as part of the Refugee Team. They represent Syria and currently reside in Jordan. Al-Hanida began practicing taekwondo at the age of nine, considering it a source of pride and happiness despite the challenges, while Al-Hussein started taekwondo at 14 and lives in a refugee camp. They see their participation as a reflection of their personal stories and their aspirations to achieve good results. Their involvement underscores the importance of sports in giving refugees a sense of purpose and belonging. The Asian Olympic Committee is keen to support them to ensure their continued presence in future editions, offering training opportunities and ongoing support.
