Dibrova (Ukrainian: Діброва) is a rural settlement in Korosten Raion, Zhytomyr Oblast, Ukraine. Population: 121 (2022 estimate)[1] In 2001, population was 197.

History

The area was strongly contaminated as the result of the Chernobyl disaster, and Dibrova was included in 1989 into the zone of mandatory resettlement.[2] The population was partially but not fully resettled.

Until 26 January 2024, Dibrova was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Dibrova became a rural settlement.[3]
