General Interest

Palestine was first represented at the 1996 Games in Atlanta where one athlete, Majed Abu Marahil, competed in the men's 10,000m athletics event.

At the 2000 Games in Sydney, two athletes represented Palestine, and since then the team has continued to grow in numbers at each subsequent Games. Swimmer Ahmed Gebrel is the only athlete from the NOC who has competed in multiple Games. He took to the pool in the 400m freestyle at London 2012 and the 200m freestyle in Rio in 2016.

At the Rio 2016 Games, six athletes represented Palestine in four sports, including Christian Zimmermann in the individual equestrian dressage event. Up until 2016, all Palestinian athletes had competed in either athletics, swimming or judo events.
