History
[edit]Until 18 July 2020, Novyi Buh was the administrative center of Novyi Buh Raion. In July 2020, as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Mykolaiv Oblast to four, Novyi Buh Raion was merged into Bashtanka Raion.[3][4] The city was not greatly affected by the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
