A grab from a handout video made available by Borna News Agency for Iranian competitive climber Elnaz Rekabi speaking to journalists upon her arrival at the Imam Khomeini International Airport in Tehran, Iran, 19 October 2022. Rekabi returned to Tehran after competing in South Korea without wearing a mandatory headscarf required for Iranian female athletes from the Islamic Republic.
