Eight athletes from Russia were among the 23 athletes at the London Olympics who tested positive for doping after fresh analysis of samples.
The confirmation of the positive tests was made by the Russian Olympic Committee.
It did not identify the athletes or what disciplines they were in, but, Sky News gathered that they came from three different sports.
Russia
remains under investigation after a World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA)
report suggested "systematic" doping was taking place in the country.
Its
track and field athletes are currently suspended from competing, and
the Olympic powerhouse could be without a full team at the upcoming Rio
games.
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) revealed 23 competitors,
spanning five sports, had tested positive after new analysis of 265
samples, on Friday.
The
IOC said it is continuing to reanalyse the samples with the latest
technology, adding that more results could come out in the next few
weeks and it will not name the athletes or the sports until second samples have been tested, a process which can take several weeks.
