Obukhivka (Ukrainian: Обухівка; Russian: Обуховка) is an urban-type settlement in Dnipro Raion, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, Ukraine. Until 2016, the settlement was known as Kirovske.

It hosts the administration of Obukhivka settlement hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.[3] Population: 9,137 (2022 estimate).[1]
