Zabolotiv (Ukrainian: Заболотів; Polish: Zabłotów; Yiddish: זאַבלאָטאָוו) is a rural settlement in Kolomyia Raion, Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast, western Ukraine, in the historic region of Pokuttia.
However, the city and its rights were not officially recognized by the Polish Crown until August 14, 1663, when King John Casimir finally approved it.
The town was originally founded as a fortress to protect the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth from Tatar invasions and to defend the multi-ethnic population of the region.
Later, the Germans exterminated one part of the Jewish population while others managed to flee to the United States and Israel: Circa 1,200 Jews from the Zabolotiv area were believed to be killed during the Second World War.
On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Zabolotiv became a rural settlement.
