The BBC has learnt that the sportswear manufacturer Adidas plans to end its multi-million-dollar sponsorship deal with athletics1 world governing body in the wake of a doping scandal. Our sports editor Dan Roan has more.

“Last year,the World Anti-doping Agency in a damning report found systematic2 evidence of state-sponsored cheating in Russia. As a result of that, that country was banned from international competition in track and field. And then, just 10 days ago, now, Dick Pound, the Head of that WADA Commission, issued another report, this time focusing on wrongdoing of the governing body itself. The company's decision to pull out early, four years early, in fact, could, we understand, cost the IWAF tens of millions of dollars.”

The President of Afghanistan Ashraf Ghani has warned that if peace talks with the Taliban don't start by April, the conflict would intensify3, and such eventuality would have consequences across the region. He spoke4 to Lyse Doucet who sent this report.

“President Ghani told me a new chapter would have to open in the next few months. If not, he said, the conflict would intensify.Afghanistan is urging neighboring Pakistan to take action against groups operating from its territory, who refused to join talks. His warning comes at a time when the Taliban has been gaining ground, but is still divided.Disaffected5 fighters have been lured6 into the ranks of the so called Islamic State, and carried out their first suicide bombings in the eastern city of Jalalabad this month. President Ghani declared that Afghans would fight back against the group, also known as Daesh.”

The leaders of all, but one, of Australia's states and territories have signed a declaration calling for the country to become a republic. The petition was organized by the Australian Republican Movement,which wants constitutional change to replace Queen Elizabeth as head of states.The Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull, a former leader of the Republican camp, has said another referendum on the issue was not a priority at the moments.

Over 70 centimeters of snow fell in Washington, officials hope to have the public transport system and the city's two main airports open again for the start of the working week. New York is also recovering from its second largest snowfall. Travel restrictions8 have been lifted, although the public has been warned to make only essential journeys to help emergency vehicles with the clear-up. Medical centers say they are getting ready to respond to heart attacks and broken bones as residents shovel9 snow away from their pathways.
