Obukhiv (Ukrainian: Обухів) is a city in Kyiv Oblast (province) of Ukraine and the administrative center of Obukhiv Raion. It hosts the administration of Obukhiv urban hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.[1] Population: 33,287 (2022 estimate).[2] In 2001, the population was 32,776.
The city has a Holodomor memorial and in 2009 the municipal administration took down the Lenin monument which was repeatedly vandalized. It is 178 km south - southeast of Chernobyl.
Until 18 July 2020, Obukhiv was incorporated as a city of oblast significance and the center of Obukhiv Municipality. It also served as the center of Obukhiv Raion even though it did not belong to the raion. In July 2020, as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Kyiv Oblast to seven, Obukhiv Municipality was merged into Obukhiv Raion.[3][4]
