Manama, October 31 (QNA) - Qatar's Adham Al Deeb claimed the silver medal in the individual foil event at the Asian Junior Fencing Championships in Bahrain.

Al Deeb narrowly missed out on gold after losing 15-14 to top seed Lau Kinji Tsun Yin of Hong Kong in a closely contested final, settling for second place.

The achievement provides a significant boost for the Qatari fencer ahead of the Dakar 2026 Summer Youth Olympic Games. (QNA)
