A '''raion''' ({{langx|uk|район|raion}}; {{plural form|{{langx|uk|райони|raiony|label=none}}}}), often translated as '''district''', is the second-level [[Administrative divisions of Ukraine|administrative division]] in [[Ukraine]]. [[Raion]]s were created in a 1922 administrative reform of the [[Soviet Union]], to which Ukraine, as the [[Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic]], belonged.<ref name="20Ukraine%201932rainons">{{cite book |last= Liber|first= George O.|date= 2016|title= Total Wars and the Making of Modern Ukraine, 1914-1954 |url= https://books.google.com/books?id=yNgQDAAAQBAJ&q=%22Raions%22+Ukraine+%221923%22&pg=PR19 |publisher= [[University of Toronto Press]]|page= ix/xx|isbn= 9781442627086}}</ref>{{#tag:ref|Ukraine was part of the Soviet Union from 1922 until [[Declaration of Independence of Ukraine|declaring its independence]] in 1991.<ref>[[Paul Robert Magocsi|Magocsi, Paul Robert]] (2010).

On 17 July 2020, the [[Verkhovna Rada]] (Ukraine's parliament) approved an administrative reform to merge most of the 490 raions, along with the "[[City of regional significance (Ukraine)|cities of regional significance]]", which were previously outside the raions, into just 136 reformed raions.<ref>{{cite news |title=Україна з новим адмінтерустроєм: парламент створив 136 нових районів та ліквідував 490 старих |url= https://decentralization.gov.ua/news/12634|work=[[Decentralization Reform]] |date=17 July 2020|language=uk}}<br>{{cite news |title=The council reduced the number of districts in Ukraine: 136 instead of 490|url= https://www.pravda.com.ua/news/2020/07/17/7259715/ |work=[[Ukrainska Pravda]] |date=17 July 2020|language=uk}}</ref> Most tasks of the raions (education, healthcare, sport facilities, culture, and social welfare) were taken over by new [[hromada]]s, the subdivisions of raions.<ref name="reformi697326">[https://m.glavcom.ua/publications/kudi-znikayut-rayoni-pislyamova-do-guchnoji-reformi-zelenskogo-697326.html Where did 354 districts disappear to?

==Districts of cities==
{{more|Urban districts of Ukraine}}
Some cities of oblast significance, along with the two [[City with special status|cities of national significance]] (Kyiv and [[Sevastopol]]{{#tag:ref|Sevastopol, a city with special status under Ukrainian law, was annexed by Russia in 2014.<ref name="ReutersRoU"/>|group=nb}}), are also divided in ''city raions'', also called ''urban raions''. City raions have their own local administration and are subordinated directly to a city. They may contain other cities, towns, and villages.

==July 2020 reform ==
On 17 July 2020, the number of raions in Ukraine was reduced to 136 (incl. 10 in Crimea) from the previous 490.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Автор |title=Те, чого ніколи не було в Україні: Уряд затвердив адмінтерустрій базового рівня, що забезпечить повсюдність місцевого самоврядування |url=https://decentralization.gov.ua/admin/articles/12533.html |access-date=2023-06-18 |website=decentralization.gov.ua}}</ref>

Note: the Russian Republic of Crimea continues to use the same administrative divisions.
