Russian athletes will remain banned from international competitions until further notice, says athletics' governing body. The IAAF banned Russia in November 2015 because of the evidence of the state-sponsored doping. The ban will remain in place until samples and data from Moscow's former anti-doping laboratory are made available. Russia must also pay all costs incurred by the work of the IAAF's taskforce.
