Kuwaiti athlete quits game against Zionist rival

Tehran, IRNA – As the 2022 Karate 1-Premier League is underway in Baku, Azerbaijan, a Kuwaiti karateka withdrew from facing a Zionist opponent on Saturday.

Earlier this year, a Kuwaiti tennis player had quitted a game against a Zionist rival in the semifinals of an international tournament in Dubai, UAE.

Social media users praised the acts of the Kuwaiti athletes which was a gesture of solidarity with the cause of Palestine and rejected the normalization of relations with the Zionist regime by some Arab countries.
