Mizhrichchia or Mezhdurechye (Ukrainian: Міжріччя; Russian: Междуречье; literally, between the rivers) is a village in the Feodosia Raion of Crimea, a territory recognized by a majority of countries as part of Ukraine and annexed by Russia as the Republic of Crimea.[2]

Mizhrichchia is located on Crimea's southern shore in the Crimean Mountains at an elevation of 198 m (650 ft).[1] Its population was 510 in the 2001 Ukrainian census.[2] Current population: 519 (2014 Census).[3]

History

Previously, the settlement was known as the Ai-Serez village (Crimean Tatar: Ay Serez). Following the forced deportation of the Crimean Tatars in 1944, the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the Russian SFSR published a decree on May 18, 1948 renaming the settlement along with many others throughout Crimea from their native Crimean Tatar names to their current variants.[4]

In 1886, the village of Ai-Serez was located in the Taraktash Volost of the Feodosia Povit of the Taurida Governorate. At that time, the settlement had a population of 655 inhabitants; it had two mosques located in its settlement.[5] In the 1897 Russian Empire census, the population increased to 1,464 inhabitants, 1,458 of which belonged to the Muslim faith.[6]
