Olympics: IOC temporarily lifts Russian suspension

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has temporarily lifted Russia's suspension from the Olympics, allowing Russian athletes to compete under the Russian flag in certain events.

The move allows some Russian athletes to participate, though not all, and marks a partial reversal of previous sanctions imposed due to widespread doping scandals. The decision was made amid ongoing discussions about the future participation of Russian athletes in international competitions.
