WAPC 2025: Congo Civil War, Genetic Disorder Fail To Bring Kashafali Down As He Sets Track Ablaze
World Para Athletics Championships: Salum Ageze Kashafali stole the show on the second day of the 2025 World Para Athletics Championships at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in New Delhi on Sunday. The muscular Norwegian set a new world record as he crossed the line in 10.42 seconds in the men’s 100m T12.
It was his third gold medal in the World Para Athletic Championships. He had also won the gold medal in the Tokyo Paralympics. That was also a record-breaking dash.
Clearly, he is an accomplished man. But if one delves into his life journey, his achievements take on the hue of the supernatural -- in a manner of speaking. Kashafali was actually born in Congo, but due to the civil war there, he had to find refuge in a couple of countries before finally settling in Norway.
