See also: Administrative divisions of Crimea. In July 2020, Ukraine conducted an administrative reform throughout its de jure territory. This included Crimea, which was at the time occupied by Russia, and is still ongoing as of October 2023. Crimea was reorganized from 14 raions and 11 municipalities into 10 raions, with municipalities abolished altogether.
Yalta Municipality was abolished, and its territories to become a part of Yalta Raion, but this has not yet been implemented due to the ongoing Russian occupation.[5]
