History

File:Roman Catholic Church Kamianske.jpg
St. Nicholas Roman Catholic Church in Kamianske between 1900 and 1905.

The first written evidence of settlement in the territory of Kamianske appeared in 1750. At that time the villages of Romankove and Kamianske, which make up the modern city, formed a part of the Zaporozhian Sich. The city was known as Kamianske until 1936,<ref>Template:In lang Dniprodzerzhinsk and several more cities got new names. Ukrayinska Pravda. 19 May 2016</ref> when it was renamed Dniprodzerzhynsk, honoring the Dnieper River and the Bolshevik leader Felix Dzerzhinsky (1877–1926), the founder of the Soviet secret police, the Cheka.

On 11 August 1979, two Aeroflot passenger jets collided in mid-air near Dniprodzerzhynsk, killing all 178 people on both aircraft.

On 15 May 2015, the president of Ukraine, Petro Poroshenko, signed a bill into law that started a six-month period for the removal of communist monuments and the mandatory renaming of settlements with names related to communism.<ref>Template:In lang Poroshenko signed the laws about decomunization Template:Webarchive.

Until 18 July 2020, Kamianske was incorporated as a city of oblast significance and the center of Kamianske Municipality. The municipality was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast to seven. The area of Kamianske Municipality was merged into newly established Kamianske Raion.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

Russian invasion of Ukraine

During the Russian invasion of Ukraine, on 8 April 2022, almost 12,000 people from the surrounding areas were temporarily evacuated to the city due to active hostilities.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> By 1 September, the number had increased to 35,000 people.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>

Geography

While mostly located on the right bank of the Dnieper, Kamianske stretches over the hydroelectric station onto the left bank where the portion of city is known as the Livyi bereh (Left Bank) neighborhood. The neighborhood arches to the west of the Kamianske's suburb of Kurylivka.

To the east, Kamianske urban hromada borders Dnipro city, creating an urban sprawl.

Kamianske is a city with a very difficult environmental conditions. The city is on the top 10 of the most air-polluted cities of Ukraine.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> There have been suggestions to assign the status of the ecological disaster city. Right-bank part of the city is mostly polluted, where the metallurgical, chemical industrial enterprises are located.

In 2008, an interdepartmental commission for solving environmental problems was created.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
