Piatykhatka (Ukrainian: П'ятихатка; Russian: Пятихатка; Crimean Tatar: Pâtihatka), is a village in the Krasnoperekopsk Raion, Autonomous Republic of Crimea, Ukraine. The settlement came under Russian occupation in 2014, and was unilaterally annexed by the Russian Federation, after conducting what was vastly considered to be a sham referendum.[1] According to the 2001 Ukrainian Census, the settlement counted a population of 635 inhabitants.[2]
Piatykhatka is located in the central portion of the Isthmus of Perekop on the northern edge of the Crimean peninsula and the Krasnoperekopsk raion. The district capital of Krasnoperekopsk is located 11 km (6.8 mi) to the south, while Armiansk is located 8 km (5 mi) to the northwest. The settlement has access to the M-17 Highway, which is connecting Kherson and Kerch.[citation needed]
