These time zones are still officially recognized and fully supported by
IANA.

Their removal appears to be related to this request:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1040997
This request does not provide any support as to why Debian should
deviate from IANA standards.
Requesting that Debian again adopt international time zone standards and
support these well known IANA time zones as it does in Bookworm.
