Volosts were abolished by the Soviet administrative reform of 1923 – 1929 . Raion s may be roughly called a modern equivalent of both volosts and uyezds. In modern Russia, subdivision into volosts is used in the Republic Of Karelia , where volosts have the same status as Raion s, and in Leningrad , Pskov , Samara , and Tula Oblast s, where volosts are considered subdivisons of raions and have the same status as Selsovet s in other Russian Federal Subjects .
