Mediterranean Games, Enkileda Carja bronze medal in snatch

TIRANA, September 1 /ATAH/ The 18-year-old weightlifter Enkileda Carja won another medal for Albania today at the Taranto 2026 Mediterranean Games. Carja lifted 100 kg to take third place in the 69 kg snatch.

After successful lifts of 98 kg and 100 kg, Carja attempted a challenging 103 kg on her third lift to secure the gold medal, but she was unsuccessful.

This is another success for our team participating in these games, after the two medals won by weightlifter Briken Calja.

These latest victories bring Albania’s total haul to six medals: two gold (Islam Dudaev, Briken Calja), one silver (Zelimkhan Abakarov), and three bronze (Ardit Zeneli, Briken Calja, Enkileda Carja). /p.s./
