The Paris Olympics are going to start soon. As the opening ceremony of the Olympics gets close, the security becomes tight. Different team members from the security office are busy checking banks of the Seine River. It is the place where the opening ceremony will happen. They are using sniffer dogs in order to make sure that area is safe for athletes.
This time the ceremony will be held outside the stadium, increasing the curiosity of many people. The number of athletes are about 7000 and people who enjoy the sports are about 300,000.
Officers from different countries such as Spain, Britain and Qatar are checking all the security measurements. Also the French police help them to ease their work. All of this preparation clearly highlights how important it is to make this event secure both for athletes and people who watch it.
It is interesting to note that the Paris Olympic opening ceremony is creating a significant buzz. This saturday, a hidden rehearsal was held on the river. The security team kept this rehearsal secret from both residents and media officers. The IOC spokesman provided some hints regarding the opening ceremony. According to hum, it will be exceptional, even though he is also not fully aware about the plan.
According to him, the show is expected to be a groundbreaking event, especially since it’s happening outside a traditional stadium for the first time. In the meantime, central Paris is facing considerable disruptions. Residents now need a special pass with a QR code to cross the Seine, and local businesses are struggling due to a drop in customers and tourists. Many Parisians have left the city, and the usual flow of people is noticeably reduced. Despite these challenges, ticket sales are booming, having already surpassed the 1996 Atlanta Olympics record, with more tickets still available.
One of the athletes named as Noah Lyles is also participating in the Paris Olympic 2024. He is a good runner and recently made an awesome running record. He ran the 100m in a record-breaking 9.81 seconds at the Diamond League meeting in London. At this time, this athlete also feels confident that he will again break the records and can win both the 100m and 200m sprints in Paris. He also strongly stated that, “I’m going to win, it’s what I always do,” reflects his belief in his growing speed.”
Meanwhile, the International Olympic Committee, headed by President Thomas Bach, had a meeting to prepare for a larger session next week. There’s some worry about the 2030 Winter Olympics, as the French Alps are the only candidate. Concerns have arisen due to the French government’s hesitance to guarantee funding, amid ongoing political instability from recent elections.
However, the IOC spokesman is trying its best to minimize these concerns. Adam’s also ensured that the topic will be discussed on coming Wednesday. He also admits that the political situation in France makes many things complex.
Only a few Russian players will participate in the Olympic 2024. 15 Russians and 17 Belarusians are allowed to enter France and compete as neutrals.
Most sports have excluded Russians in response to their actions in Ukraine.
The IOC has admitted that they expect the Paris Games to be targeted by disinformation attacks, especially after recent incidents linked to Russia. Adams also suggests that a campaign against the Paris Olympics might already be in progress, saying, “Clearly there is a campaign of some sort going on.”
Furthermore, the IOC also keeps facing false information in future. And it is also expected that this type of wrong information is increasing day by day that makes the situation more complex. Adams also discussed the documentary entitled “Olympics has Fallen” This was a fake documentary and Artificial Intelligence tools were used in this movie. The main purpose was to damage the Olympics across the world. As it is very easy for technologies to spread this false information, we can expect to see more of this kind of deceit in the future.
