Gender scandal boxer Imane Khelif wins Olympic gold

SUMMARY

Imane Khelif won the Olympic gold medal in boxing at the Paris Games, dominating China's Yang Liu in the welterweight final.

Despite the controversies, Khelif expressed her pride, declaring, "I want to tell the entire world that I am a woman."
