Ukrainka (Ukrainian: Українка; Russian: link=no|Украинка; until 1958, Khrushchevo (Хрущево)) is a village in Beryslav Raion, Kherson Oblast, southern Ukraine, about 121.8km (75.7miles) northeast from the centre of Kherson city. It belongs to Novooleksandrivka rural hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.[1]
