The Krasnodar region announced Monday that it would hold auctions for land plots in the planned Azov-City gambling center on July 1. The gaming center, located on the border of the Krasnodar and Rostov regions along the Azov Sea, was created late last year as one of four national zones where the country's gambling industry would have to move after a ban comes into effect for the rest of the country on July 1, 2009.
