Bakhmut Raion, Administrative district in Donetsk Oblast, Ukraine
Bakhmut Raion spans across 1,687 square kilometers in northeastern Donetsk Oblast, containing seven municipalities including urban and rural communities.
Established in 1923, the district underwent renaming from Artemivsk Raion to Bakhmut Raion in 2016 following Ukraine's decommunization reforms.
The district incorporates multiple communities with different population patterns, from urban centers like Bakhmut city to rural settlements in Zvanivka.
The district administration manages local governance through a system of seven hromadas, each maintaining its own municipal services and development programs.
The population of Bakhmut Raion doubled from 105,040 to 220,275 between 2020 and 2022 due to territorial reorganization and demographic shifts.
