Zboriv (Ukrainian: Зборів, IPA: [ˈzbɔriu̯] ⓘ; Polish: Zborów; Yiddish: זבאָרעוו, romanized: Zbarev; Russian: Зборов, romanized: Zborov) is a small city in Ternopil Raion, Ternopil Oblast, western Ukraine.
During World War I, the town's vicinity was the site of heavy fighting between the Czechoslovak legionnaires and the Austrian Army (June 1917, Battle of Zborov).
In 1941, during World War II, Zboriv was the site of a mass murder conducted by Germans of the Einsatzgruppen, along with local Ukrainians.
[citation needed] A significant part of the local budget relied on agriculture and governmental subsidies.
During the 1990s (until present time) as a result of economic decline many working-age people emigrated - mostly as a low-skilled labourers in Western Europe or Russia.
Nowadays, in spite of the unfavorable conditions, the younger generation is less likely to quit and prefer to commute daily to work in the larger cities Ternopil and Lviv, which offer wider job opportunities.
