Liubashivka (Ukrainian: Любаші́вка, Ljubašívka, Russian: Любашёвка) is a rural settlementinPodilsk RaionofOdesa Oblast (region), Ukraine, located of south-western Ukraine. Liubashivka hosts the administration of Liubashivka settlement hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.[1] Population: 8,729 (2022 estimate).[2]
Town was founded in the 18th century.
A railway from Odesa to Kropyvnytskyi and a railway station were built here in 1868.
Many armies passed through town in the period from 1917 to 1920, when Ukraine gained its independence from Russia for a short period of time. They represented different powers: Russian Bolsheviks, Central Council of Ukraine, Mahno movement and the White movement. With the end of the war, the Communist Party assumed complete control of the country. The Bolsheviks leader Joseph Stalin launched a command economy, rapid industrialization and collectivization of its agriculture.
The Stalin's Ukrainian famine (1932—1933), or Holodomor was one of the largest national catastrophes in the modern history of Liubashivka. Until World War II the town had a Jewish community. In 1940 Jewish population was 2500.
During World War II, Liubashivka was occupied by Romanian and German forces from August 4, 1941 to March 30, 1944. The Nazis murdered approximately 400 people in Liubashivka, mostly from its Jewish community.[3] By 1990, the Jewish population was only 5 persons.
In 1957, Liubashivka received urban-type settlement status.[3]
In 1991, after the collapse of Communism, the city became part of newly independent Ukraine.
Until 18 July 2020, Liubashivka was the administrative center of Liubashivka Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Odesa Oblast to seven. The area of Liubashivka Raion was merged into Podilsk Raion.[4][5] Until 26 January 2024, Liubashivka was designated an urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Liubashivka became a rural settlement.[6]
There are two schools, one hospital, a railway station, and a hotel.
Liubashivka is an important transport center and located approximately 160 kilometers from the region capital, Odesa. The town lies on a route Highway05/European route 95: Kyiv — Odesa — Merzifon.
Through the territory of the Liubashivka pass the railroad routes.
Liubashivka is primarily Ukrainophone.[citation needed]
