I would typically use "starting in" for this sentence, since it's an indefinite future event. I usually only use "from" for events that have already taken place, or when referencing a defined timeline that occurs in the future (from xx until xx). The indefinite future of "from 2025" just seems odd to me, it seems like it needs a "until xxxx", otherwise the sentence seems incomplete.

It's not just you, I too, cringe at some of the vocabulary used by some so called journalists.
Saying 'as from' instead of 'from' would be more meaningful.
