Ukrainian Railways moved the zero kilometer, from which the distance of the railway track is calculated, from Moscow to Kyiv. The company announced this on Telegram.

Before that, at the main station of the Ukrainian capital, there were marks - 856 and 857 kilometers, since previously the distance was counted from Russia. “Let's put an end to this. Now the “zero” kilometer of Ukrainian railways is here, in Kyiv, at the Central Station,” the company said.

Earlier, the Ukrainian Railways announced the start of a program to rename objects as part of “de-Russification”. It is specified that the program is designed for three years and should be completed in 2025.
