Klyny (Ukrainian: Клини́) is a village in Ukraine, located in Vynohradove rural hromada, Kherson Raion, Kherson Oblast.[1]
History
[edit]On 28 October 1959, the Klyny state form was founded, which was based on Department No. 3 of the Frunze Velyokopanivsky state farm.[2] This area of the state farm was later the basis for the village.[2] The village was founded in 1967. The village gets it name, which in English translates to "Wedges", due to its geographical location: it fits into a triangle of roads with a wedge.[2]
Since the early days of the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, the village has remained under Russian occupation, as the village is located on the left-bank of the Dnieper in Kherson Oblast, with only the right-bank being liberated in late 2022 during the Kherson counteroffensive.
Demographics
[edit]According to the 2001 Ukrainian Census, the only official census taken in post-independence Ukraine, the population of the village was 534 people. Of the people residing in the village, their mother tongue is as follows:[3]
