On 19 May, 2016, the Verkhovna Rada adopted the decision to rename Partyzany to Rykove according to the law prohibiting names of Communist origin.[2]
Until 26 January 2024, Rykove was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Rykove became a rural settlement.[3]
Rykove is located on the railway line connecting Melitopol with Novooleksiivka and which continues further to Dzhankoi; however, after the annexation of Crimea by the Russian Federation, all traffic to Crimea has been suspended. It is also on the M18 highway, connecting Kharkiv via Dnipro, Zaporizhzhia, and Melitopol with Crimea.
