Paralympics-Paralympic Committee lifts Russia ban, with conditions

The International Paralympic Committee (IPC) said on Friday it would lift the ban on Russia's Paralympic Committee by March 15, under certain conditions.

Russia has been barred from international Paralympic competitions since August 2016 over allegations of state-sponsored doping similar to the ones that led to the suspension of its athletics federation and anti-doping agency.
