Krynychky Raion
raion in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, Ukraine

Krynychky Raion (Ukrainian: Криничанський район) was a raion (district) of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, southeastern-central Ukraine. Its administrative centre was located at the urban-type settlement of Krynychky. The raion was abolished on 18 July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast to seven. The area of Krynychky Raion was merged into Kamianske Raion. The last estimate of the raion population was 34,133 (2020 est.).
At the time of disestablishment, the raion consisted of three hromadas:
Bozhedarivka settlement hromada with the administration in the urban-type settlement of Bozhedarivka;
Krynychky settlement hromada with the administration in Krynychky;
Zatyshne rural hromada with the administration in the selo of Zatyshne.

Why this record matters
The phrase “raion in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, Ukraine” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 24, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q2637034. Authority coordinates are 48.374, 34.456. 2 of 3 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2020.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
