Luhansk Okruha (Ukrainian: Луганська округа; Russian: Луганский округ) was an okruha of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic from 1923 to 1930. Its administrative center was the city Luhansk.

History

[edit]

Luhansk Okruha was established on 7 March 1923, originally within Donets Governorate.[1] In June 1925, the governorate system was abolished in Ukraine and the districts became the first-level administrative divisions of the Ukrainian SSR.[2] In June 1930, Starobilsk Okruha [uk] was abolished, and its former territory was merged into Luhansk Okruha.[3] Luhansk Okruha itself was abolished on 2 September 1930, and its constituent raions became directly subordinated to the Ukrainian SSR.[4]
