The International Paralympic Committee (IPC) Swimming Committee provided Russian athletes with 42 quotas – 21 each for men and women. “The number was determined based on the results of athletes’ performances at competitions included in the IPC rating list, including those held on the territory of the Russian Federation as part of the Summer Paralympic Games “We are together.
