Komyshuvakha (Ukrainian: Комишуваха; Russian: Камышеваха) is a rural settlement in Zaporizhzhia Raion, Zaporizhzhia Oblast, southern Ukraine. It was formerly administered within Orikhiv Raion until 2020. Its population was 5,452 in the 2001 Ukrainian Census.[2] Current population: 5,251 (2022 estimate).[3]

History

Komyshuvakha was first founded in 1770; it was given the status of an urban-type settlement in 1957.[2] It is named after the Komyshuvakha River which flows through the settlement.

Until 26 January 2024, Komyshuvakha was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Komyshuvakha became a rural settlement.[4]
