WADA suspends Russian anti-doping agency, declares five more nations non-compliant

The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) decided on Wednesday to declare the Russian Anti-Doping Agency as non-compliant as a result of an independent investigation into doping in Russia's athletics programme. The agency also declared five other nations non-compliant with the anti-doping code: Argentina, Bolivia and Ukraine were pinged for using non-accredited laboratories for tests, while Andorra and Israel did not have rules in place that were within the 2015 Code.
