 ### Fixed
 
+- `opentelemetry-instrumentation-django`: Remove duplicate query logging in SQLCommenter middleware that broke Django's `assertNumQueries`
+  ([#4367](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-python-contrib/pull/4367))
 - `opentelemetry-docker-tests`: Replace deprecated `SpanAttributes` from `opentelemetry.semconv.trace` with `opentelemetry.semconv._incubating.attributes`
  ([#4339](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-python-contrib/pull/4339))
 - `opentelemetry-instrumentation-confluent-kafka`: Skip `recv` span creation when `poll()` returns no message or `consume()` returns an empty list, avoiding empty spans on idle polls
