France invoked its strict rules on secularism to ban its athletes from wearing religious symbols, including the hijab, during the Paris 2024 Olympics .
France 's football and basketball federations have also opted to exclude players wearing the headscarf from competitions, including at the amateur level.
These decisions "are disproportionate and discriminatory, and infringe on their rights (of French athletes) to freely manifest their identity, their religion or belief in private and in public," said a statement signed by eight independent UN experts.
