hero city, administrative centre of Mykolaiv Oblast

Mykolaiv is a hero city of Ukraine, the administrative centre of Mykolaiv Oblast and of Mykolaiv Raion. The city lies at the mouth of the Inhul River, where it flows into the Southern Bug, 65 kilometres from the Black Sea.

In early 2026, residents lived through long power and heating outages, and small businesses had to invest in alternative power sources. In March 2026, McDonald’s reopened in the city after a four-year break. In autumn 2026, Mykolaiv joined the 50 Ukrainian cities to be assessed under the European City Index.

NikVesti covers everyday life in the city: the aftermath of Russian strikes, power and heating, public transport and road repairs, schools, culture, road accidents, courts and city hall decisions.
