Taisiia Onofriichuk, a 16-year-old Ukrainian rhythmic gymnast, qualified for the individual all-around final at the Paris 2024 Olympics, despite the ongoing war in her home country. Onofriichuk’s team had to contend with frequent air strikes and limited training opportunities, but she delivered a remarkable performance, earning a spot in the final with a near-impeccable routine that included a thrilling hoop routine set to Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’.
