Obukhivka ({{langx|uk|Обухівка}}; {{langx|ru|Обуховка}}) is a rural settlement in Dnipro Raion, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, Ukraine. Until 2016, the settlement was known as Kirovske. It was renamed by the Verkhovna Rada according to the law prohibiting names of communist origin.{{cite news |title=Что еще переименовали на Днепропетровщине: 2 города, 1 район, 67 сел и 6 поселков |url=https://34.ua/chto-eshche-pereimenovali-na-dnepropetrovshchine-2-goroda-1-rajon-67-sel-i-6-poselkov_n48290 |work=34.ua |date=15 May 2016 |language=Russian}} Obukhivka is a suburb of Dnipro and is located on the left bank of the Dnieper.
