Ukraine

[edit]

Part of the map which reflects daylight saving zone in Ukraine is wrong: Ukraine is following Northern Hemisphere summer (in blue) while Russia is not (light grey) and part of the Ukraine (not only internationally recognized but by actual control by Ukraine) is depicted in grey, which is not just misleading but is actually wrong, as incorrectly relay the actual information.

In this regard I suggest to:

1) either change the map to the actual situation: if the author is that concerned about the actual daylight savings implementation without any concern to internationally recognized country borders, they may modify the map to take into account real front line between Ukraine and Russia, as this line separates areas with daylight savings (controlled by Ukraine) from those without (controlled by Russia). However, such modification would be required at each major change of the front line;

2) or mark temporary occupied Ukrainian territories, say, by oblique shading with appropriate comment added, like, "Shaded regions are internationally recognized territory of the Ukraine (with daylight saving) but currently are partially occupied by Russia (without daylight savings), so daylight savings implementation depends on the actual control of the territories"; link to appropriate Wikipedia article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russo-Ukrainian_War) could be also added.

I marked the part of Ukraine without DST (gray) according to this map of the area occupied by Russia. It looks like they match, in fact the part shown in gray is even a little smaller than the occupied area. Is there any part in gray that is actually controlled by Ukraine?
