Dobroslav (uk|Доброслав; ru|Доброслав), previously known as Kominternivske from 1935 to 2016, is a rural settlement in Odesa Raion, Odesa Oblast, Ukraine. It hosts the administration of Dobroslav settlement hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.[1] Population:
Dobroslav is located on the banks of the Small Adzhalyk River, which forms the Small Adzhalyk Estuary.
On 21 May 2016, the Verkhovna Rada adopted a decision to rename Kominternivske Raion to Lyman Raion, and Kominternivske to Dobroslav, according to the law prohibiting names of communist origin.[2]
Until 18 July 2020, Dobroslav was the administrative center of Lyman 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 Lyman Raion was split between Berezivka and Odesa Raions, with Dobroslav transferred to Odesa Raion.[3] [4]
Until 26 January 2024, Dobroslav was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Dobroslav became a rural settlement.[5]
The closest railway station is in Kremydivka, on a railway which connects Odesa with Mykolaiv and Voznesensk.
Dobroslav has access to Highway M14 connecting Odesa and Mykolaiv. Local roads connect it to Berezivka and Ivanivka.
