A map on the Olympic website has been changed after Ukraine protested that it included a border across the Crimean Peninsula. The map is part of a “Cheer Zone” feature tracking how fans around the world have backed different teams at the Tokyo Games. Late Thursday the map had a black line across the top of Crimea in the same style as national borders. On Friday morning, there was no line across the peninsula.
