Hadiach Raion

Hadiach Raion (Ukrainian: Гадяцький район; translit.: Hadyats'kyi Raion) was a raion (district) in Poltava Oblast in central Ukraine. The raion's administrative center was the city of Hadiach, which was incorporated separately as a city of oblast significance and did not belong to the raion. The raion was abolished and its territory was merged into Myrhorod Raion[1] on 18 July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Poltava Oblast to four.[2][3] The last estimate of the raion population was 27,508 (2020 est.)[4]
