The International Olympic Committee has suspended Russia's own Olympic body - after it tried to incorporate part of Ukraine within its remit.

It can't act as a member, and funding from the I-O-C will be stopped.

Russia's Olympic Committee incorporated sports bodies in four regions in eastern Ukraine.

But the I-O-C says no decision's been made on allowing athletes to compete as neutrals at next year's Paris Games.
