"Olha Saladukha, the acting president of Ukraine’s athletics federation, told the AFP news agency that the country’s performance in the Paris Olympics – winning three athletics medals on August 4 – could have an “explosive emotional effect” amid Russia’s continued invasion. Yaroslava Mahuchikh, who won gold in the women’s high jump that day, dedicated her medal to the nearly 500 Ukrainian athletes and coaches killed since February 2022." AJ
