The Refugee Olympic Team of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has arrived at the Athletes Village in the suburbs of Paris.
A total of 37 athletes from 15 nations and regions comprise this year's Refugee Olympic Team, and they will participate in 12 events at the Games.
Before making their way to the French capital, the athletes gathered in Normandy for a welcome event that allowed them to meet their teammates, and train at the state-of-the-art facilities in Bayeux.
