Israel has joined the list of countries who uphold strict rules regarding the use of drugs in sports.  

Israel has fallen into line with the rules of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA).

WADA says its foundation board has voted to remove Israel from the list of countries found to be non-compliant with the world anti-doping code.

WADA says Israel has “drafted and adopted anti-doping rules” in line with the global code.

In November, Israel was one of six countries declared by WADA to be non-complaint, along with Andorra, Argentina, Bolivia, Russia and Ukraine.

Belgium, Brazil, France, Greece, Mexico and Spain were given until March 18 to come into compliance.

WADA is a foundation created through a collective initiative led by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to promote, coordinate and monitor the fight against drugs in sports.
