Israeli Boycott

The head of the Turkish Huda Party said that the genocide by Israel in Gaza should be responded to with a campaign to boycott Zionist athletes at the 2024 Olympics.

Hawzah News Agency- “The killer of women and children should not be present at the Olympics,” said Zekeriya Yapıcıoğlu, the head of the Turkish Huda Party, in protest of the presence of Israeli athletes at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

During nine months of war against the people of Gaza, Israel has martyred over 38,000 Palestinians, 70% of whom are women and children.

IOC’s Double Standard against Russian & Israeli Athletes

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) had previously banned all Russian athletes from participating in competitions at the start of the Russia-Ukraine war due to violations of humanitarian laws.

FIFA and UEFA also suspended Russian football, but they have not taken similar action against Israel, maintaining a double standard with regard to the crimes in Gaza.

The head of the Huda Party claims that the actions of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) are a blatant violation of international laws, and the crimes of Israel in Gaza and the massacre of thousands of athletes by this regime should not be overlooked.

Zekeriya Yapıcıoğlu believes that if the Olympic organizers do not boycott Israeli athletes at the tournament, Muslim athletes worldwide should, as a sign of protest against the killing of innocent women and children, refrain from competing against the Zionist athletes.
