Position NOC*NSF – Israel Gaza
Read moreNOC*NSF is deeply shocked by the devastating impact of the war between Israel and Hamas on the population in Gaza. The situation is also horrific for the people of Israel, particularly for the families of those who have been taken hostage.
NOC*NSF is aware that this war affects athletes on both sides, placing significant pressure on their preparation for and participation in events. We also recognize the efforts of the National Olympic and Paralympic Committees of Israel and Palestine to continue operating under these challenging circumstances. This commitment deserves the highest respect.

Statement on the position of athletes from Russia and Belarus
NOC*NSF fully supports the enforcement of the sanctions previously imposed by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) against Russia and Belarus.
This means that no joint international sporting events take place in Belarus and Russia and that individual athletes or teams that wish to participate in sporting events elsewhere cannot do so under the flag of Russia or Belarus.
NOC*NSF also endorses the reaffirmed solidarity with Ukraine and support for Ukrainian athletes around the world.
