Zakharivka is located in the forest steppe zone, in the valley of the drying river Kuchurhan, between the southern spurs of the Podolian Upland.

On the tenth anniversary of the October Revolution – November 7, 1927 – Zakharivka was renamed Frunzivka, in honor of the Soviet military and statesman M.V.

[3] Remains of a Mesolithic settlement (13,000 years ago) and a large burial ground of the Chernyakhiv culture (3rd–6th centuries AD) were found on the territory of Zakharivka and near it.

It's believed that it was founded in the second half of the 18th century by Ukrainian and Russian runaway serfs, as well as Moldavians who came here from the Dniester.

In the town of Zakharivka itself, 702 people lived, there were 127 farms, there was a state apartment of the 3rd estate, an Orthodox church, 2 Jewish synagogues, a school, a zemstvo station, 6 shops, a food and wine warehouse, an annual fair and bazaars every 2 weeks on Sundays.

In the village of Adamivka lived 50 people, there were 12 farms, there was a steam mill and a brick factory.

During the Second World War, from August 1, 1941 to April 4, 1944, it was under the occupation of the Kingdom of Romania as part of the Transnistria Governorate.

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