Dnistrovskyi Raion

Dnistrovskyi Raion (Ukrainian: Дністровський район) is a raion (district) of Chernivtsi Oblast, Ukraine. It was created in July 2020 as part of the reform of administrative divisions of Ukraine. The center of the raion is the urban-type settlement of Kelmentsi. Three abolished raions, Kelmentsi, Khotyn, and Sokyriany Raions, part of abolished Novoselytsia Raion, as well as the town of Novodnistrovsk, which was previously incorporated as a city of oblast significance, were merged together into Dnistrovskyi Raion.[1][2] The name of the raion is derived from the Dniester.
