Paralympics Zakia Khudadadi Afghan refugee became a symbol of all

This Thursday was the first day of events at the Paralympic Games. The first medals were awarded and the refugee team won its second medal in the history of the Olympic Games. After boxer Cindy Ngamba, it was para-taekwondo athlete Zakia Khudadadi, an Afghan refugee born with a missing forearm, who won bronze at the Grand Palais. The 25-year-old athlete, who went through the repechage in the under 47 kilos category, became the idol of the Grand Palais by winning the bronze medal. An extraordinary career and an athlete that the entire public has adopted.
