Nove Shakhove (Ukrainian: Нове Шахове) is a village in the Shakhove rural hromada, Pokrovsk Raion, Donetsk Oblast, Ukraine.

History

The village was originally named Khristianivka, before being renamed Rosa Luxemburg, in honor of the labour activist of the same name. In accordance with the Law of Ukraine "On the Condemnation of the Communist and National Socialist (Nazi) Totalitarian Regimes in Ukraine and the Prohibition of Propaganda of Their Symbols", the village was renamed to its modern name.[1]

The village was affected by the Russo-Ukrainian war, due to its location near the front line in Donetsk.[2][3]
