It is still suspended by the World Anti-Doping Agency, but RUSADA is playing it transparent. The Russian anti-doping agency announced to TASS, through a spokesperson, to have recorded 27 cases of violations of the rules by default of whereabouts of Russian athletes in September alone. Since the beginning of the year, RUSADA inspectors have noted a very high number of suspected doping cases of the same nature, in violation of the rule of "availability for testing": 32 in January, 15 in February, 9 in March, 24 in April, 19 in May, 22 in June, 31 in July and 42 in August. In total, 221 cases in just nine months. Massive. But this figure recalls others, recorded by RUSADA over the last two years and also very high: 242 cases of failure to locate last year, and 375 in 2022.
