Iraqi weightlifter Ali Ammar made history today, Tuesday, securing the gold medal in the snatch event at the Asian Games "Asiad Nagoya." His triumph not only claimed gold but also saw Ammar break the world record in the discipline, successfully lifting 219 kg. This outstanding achievement stems from Ammar's exceptional performance, as he outperformed an elite group of weightlifters from across Asia, adding a new, bright chapter to Iraq's sports record on the continental stage. The success reflects intensive preparations undertaken by Ammar under national team coach Ammar Yasser's supervision, alongside continuous support from the Iraqi National Olympic Committee, thus affirming Iraq's standing in the world of weightlifting at "Asiad Nagoya."
