![]() | On 31 July 2024, it was proposed that this article be moved from Palestinian sports during the 2023–2024 Israeli invasion of Gaza to Palestinian sports during the Israeli invasion of the Gaza Strip. The result of the discussion was moved. |
This article name is biased and should be renamed.
[edit]Saying it is an Israeli invasion is extremely biased. This article should be renamed to a more neutral title. 217.180.192.200 (talk) 21:13, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

[edit]https://wapo.st/4dhoXzR mentions many examples of Palestinian athletes killed that are not currently in the article, as well as other effects on athletes (such as hunger) which are not covered. 🌸wasianpower🌸 (talk • contribs) 16:05, 24 July 2024 (UTC)

Remove reference to the death of Muhammad Balah
This article claims that Mohammed Balah was killed on October 11th 2023 with details about his death without providing a source.
A search reveals he had an interview with Al Jazeera on April 2nd 2024 [1], and seems to be present on social media as of June 21st 2024 [2]. The date of his interview is after the attacks and mentions the attacks, and his Instagram account is verified, so I am quite certain it is him and not someone else.
I believe the misunderstanding stems from the fact that the Al Jazeera article used in this article as a source for his death, (https://www.aljazeera.com/sports/2023/10/30/israelis-war-on-gaza-hits-palestinian-football) states that "in one of his last messages on social media, dated October 10, he was less optimistic about surviving the latest round of violence." [3] which was his last social media post at the time the article was written, not his last social media post ever. Zz0621 (talk) 04:03, 27 July 2024 (UTC)

False sources
[edit]Citation 1 is to an article that has disputed sources.
Citation 2 is to this article. https://www.aa.com.tr/en/middle-east/gazas-athletes-caught-between-olympic-dreams-and-israeli-bombs-on-cusp-of-paris-2024/3286120
This article does not support it's numbers and claims and many can be proven grossly false. For instance, it claims that only one of Palestine's 10 stadiums is still standing. Palestine only ever had 6 stadiums. It cites 69 slain Olympic athletes. That is based on a tweet that only shows 43 pictures, many of whom around under 10, and no names. Palestine has only ever had 35 Olympians. Gogopotatoto (talk) 03:16, 2 August 2024 (UTC)

Remove sources 17, 18, and 20 from "69 Palestinian athletes of Olympic sports were killed in Israeli attacks between October 2023 and July 2024. All three of these link back to the BDS numbers, and not a neutral third party. SorghumBean (talk) 23:02, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
- This has been discussed at Talk:Palestine at the 2024 Summer Olympics. The statement is very clearly attributed in the article: “The Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel reported that, according to the Palestinian Football Association, […]”. Where is the problem with that? ~ IvanScrooge98 (talk) 17:14, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
