Andriivka (Ukrainian: Андріївка) is a village in Beryslav Raion, Kherson Oblast, southern Ukraine. It belongs to the Kalynivske settlement hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.[1]

Administrative status

Until 18 July 2020, Andriivka belonged to Velyka Oleksandrivka Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Kherson Oblast to five. The area of the Velyka Oleksandrivka Raion was merged into the Beryslav Raion.[2][3]

Andriivka was occupied by Russian forces during the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. On 27 July 2022, the expulsion of Russian occupation forces was announced.[6][7] The village was destroyed during the battles near the village, with some documents stating the village could not be restored.[8] However, pyrotechnicians were sent out to clear the village of mines.[8]
