Antratsyt Raion or Antratsit Raion (Ukrainian: Антрацитівський район; Russian: Антрацитовский район) was a raion (district) in Luhansk Oblast in eastern Ukraine. The raion was abolished on 18 July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Luhansk Oblast to eight.[1][2] However, since 2014 the raion was not under control of Ukrainian government and has been part of the Luhansk People's Republic[3] which continues using it as an administrative unit.[4] The administrative center of the raion is the city of Antratsyt, which previously was incorporated as a city of oblast significance and did not belong to the raion, but in 2015 was merged into the raion. The last estimate of the raion population, reported by the Ukrainian government, was 30,007 (2020 est.)[5].
