Mashivka

Mashivka (Ukrainian: Машівка; Russian: Машевка) is a rural settlement in Poltava Raion of Poltava Oblast, northeastern Ukraine.

The settlement is located on the left bank of the Tahamlyk, a tributary of the Vorskla in the drainage basin of the Dnieper.

The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Poltava Oblast to four.

[3][4] Until 26 January 2024, Mashivka was designated urban-type settlement.

On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Mashivka became a rural settlement.
