Stryi (Ukrainian: Стрий, IPA: [strɪj] ⓘ; Polish: Stryj) is a city in Lviv Oblast, western Ukraine.

It is located in the left bank of the Stryi River, approximately 65 kilometres (40 mi) south of Lviv in the foothills of the Carpathian Mountains.

During the Khmelnytsky Uprising the Cossack Hetmanate army was reinforced by Hungarian regiments of Prince Rákóczi of Transylvania.

In 1915 a bloody World War I battle took place in the nearby Carpathian Mountains, around the peak of Zwinin (992 metres above sea level), a few kilometres south of Stryi in which some 33,000 Imperial Russian soldiers perished.

On 1 November 1918, an armed uprising took place in the town, after which it became a part of the short-lived West Ukrainian People's Republic.

In interbellum Poland, it was the capital of the Stryj County (area 2,081 square kilometres (803 sq mi), pop.

In a short time, Ukrainians and local Poles conducted a pogrom in the Jews of the settlement, killing about 300 people.

Between then and August, 1943, the Germans, with the assistance of the Ukrainian police, are said to have murdered most of the town's 11,000 Jews in a nearby forest or rounded them up to be sent to Belzec extermination camp.
