Geographical position edit

Novoplatonivka is a village on the eastern bank of the Oskil River. A one-kilometer-wide strip of pine forest separates the village from a reservoir. Novoplatonivka is located three kilometers west of the village of Borova. It is close to Avtoshliakh R 79. The nearest train station is 7.6 km south in the town of Bohuslavka.

History edit

The village was established in 1910 by settlers from the Yekaterinoslav[2][3][4] region. The village is named in honor of Platon Kalnitsky, a confidant of the landowner Sofia Nikolaevna Pekhovskaya, who sold her land to immigrants.

Until 18 July 2020, Novoplatonivka belonged to Borova Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Kharkiv Oblast to seven. The area of Borova Raion was merged into Izium Raion.[5][6]

Economy edit

Commercial fish spawning and feeding takes place in Odnorebrivska Bay and the nearby reservoir's shallow waters, an area of 90 hectares, between the village of Novoplatonivka and Borova.[7][8] Additionally, the Borova gas compressor station is located a few kilometers away.[9]
