What is Kamchatka Time?
'''Kamchatka Time''', also known as '''Anadyr Time (ANAT)''' is a [[time zone]] in eastern Russia that is 12 hours ahead of UTC (UTC+12:00). It contains the [[Kamchatka Peninsula]] and the Chukotka Autonomous Okrug. Its summer time zone was '''Kamchatka Summer Time''', or '''Anadyr Summer Time''' (ANAST) (UTC+13:00). On 28 March 2010, Kamchatka Time was eliminated, thus joining '''Magadan Time''' (UTC+11:00) and '''Magadan Summer Time''' (UTC+12:00). On 27 March 2011, Russia switched to [[daylight saving time]] permanently, so this time zone was at UTC+12:00 and when Russia switched to permanent [[standard time]] on 26 October 2014, this time zone was re-introduced.
