athletes did not undergo a testosterone examination but were subject to a separate and recognized test, whereby the specifics remain confidential. This test conclusively indicated that both athletes did not meet the required necessary eligibility criteria and were found to have competitive advantages over other female competitors

were found to have competitive advantages over other [female] competitors

Thats the whole point of competitives sports though. I don't complain about only swimming slower then Michael Phelps because he has certain bodily characterisrics which give him a competitive advantage.

Women's events are created specifically to filter out Michael Phelps and other people with male characteristics.

Gender is not binary and a line must be drawn somewhere. The previous IBA charges of "competitive advantages over other female competitors" were not appealed against by Imane Khelif.
