For the second time, the Kosovar judoka has secured a place on the Olympic podium. Three years ago, she claimed gold in Tokyo in the under 48 kg category, and now she has grabbed a silver medal in Paris 2024.

In the final of the under 52 kg category, Krasniqi faced Uzbek judoka Diyora Keldiyorova and was defeated.

In a magnificent atmosphere at the “Champ de Mars Arena,” broadcast to viewers on RTSH, Distria didn’t clinch the gold, but this doesn’t diminish her achievement. It remains a significant milestone in the history of Kosovar sports.
