Wasim Abusal (Arabic: وسيم أبو سل, romanized: Wasīm Abū Sall; born 14 June 2004) is a Palestinian featherweight boxer. He competed at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Career

Abusal started boxing at the age of 12 in his hometown of Ramallah, encouraged by his father.[1][2]

He competed in the featherweight category at the 2022 Asian Games in China, finishing 9th. In 2023, he took part in the IBA World Boxing Championships in Uzbekistan. He then won a bronze medal in his category at the 2023 Arab Games in Algeria.[1]

Despite not qualifying from the world tournament, Abusal was given a wildcard to represent Palestine at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, France, becoming the first Palestinian boxer to compete at an Olympic event. He was eliminated during the round of 32. He also served as Olympic flagbearer for his country alongside swimmer Valerie Tarazi at the opening ceremony.[1][3]

Training

Abusal welcomed the IOC's decision to invite him to the 2024 Olympics, with his coaches lamenting the obstacles posed to his training and competition schedule by the Israeli occupation of Palestine and the Israel–Hamas war. His main coach, Cairo-based Gazan Ahmad Harara, follows his training via remote connection due to the inability to travel to the West Bank with a Gaza ID, and only meets him during international competitions. Because of movement restrictions within the West Bank and the weakness of the Palestinian passport, Abusal is also unable to meet regularly with boxing partners of his weight, with the only other boxer in Ramallah weighing 71 kg, and to attend all tournaments in Palestine and abroad.[1][2][4] The last part of his Olympic training took place in Allonnes, Sarthe.[2]
