Just over two weeks after the end of the Tokyo Olympics, the Paralympics began Tuesday with the opening ceremony.

The Paralympics are also being held in Tokyo using the same Olympic facilities, and are also being held without fans due to the pandemic. There are 4,403 disabled athletes, which is a record number.
