History

edit

In accordance with decommunization laws in Ukraine, Tsiurupynsk was renamed to Poima by the Ukrainian parliament in 2016.[3] The previous name, Tsiurupynsk, was given in honour of former CPSU Central Committee member and Gosplan chairman Alexander Tsiurupa, born in nearby Oleshky.

During the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, it was occupied by Russia.[4]

On 23 September 2023, the administration of Oleshky urban hromada began discussions on renaming Poima to Zaplava. This was as a result of a decision by the National Commission for State Language Standards [uk] on 22 June, determining that the name of the settlement was not in line with state language standards, as it was a transliteration from Russian. Zaplava is the native Ukrainian equivalent of Poima. Poima was one of 43 settlements in Kherson Oblast recommended to be renamed in the decision.[5]

Poima was reportedly recaptured by Ukraine on October 18, 2023 during an incursion across the Dnieper river.[4][6]

In September 2024, Poima was renamed to Zaplava.[7]

Demographics
