Original Note:
This ad shows footage of Algerian Boxer Imane Khelif while stating "men can beat up women and win medals." This is in reference to the 2024 Paris Olympics. Claims of Imane being secretly a man or a transgender woman are false. Imane was born female. https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/olympics/2024/08/01/imane-khelif-algerian-boxer-gender-paris-olympics/ https://www.verifythis.com/article/news/verify/olympics-verify/algerian-boxer-imane-khelif-gender-identity-controversy-fact-check/536-4de08f05-1af5-4da7-971e-38fed8bcef19 https://glaad.org/releases/fact-sheet-olympic-boxers-and-accurate-information-about-participation-and-eligibility/
