Krushynka (Ukrainian: Крушинка) is a small village in Fastiv Raion in the Kyiv Oblast (province) of northern Ukraine. It belongs to Hlevakha settlement hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine. Krushynka has 347 inhabitants.
It is known at least from the 16th century.
In November 1918 the village was a site of fighting between the Sich Riflemen and Russian supporters of Pavlo Skoropadsky. In February 1919 another battle against Bolshevik forces took place here, and in August 1919 the Bolsheviks were opposed by forces of the Ukrainian Galician Army in the area.
Until 18 July 2020, Krushynka belonged to Vasylkiv Raion. The raion was abolished that day as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Kyiv Oblast to seven. The area of Vasylkiv Raion was split between Bila Tserkva, Fastiv, and Obukhiv Raions, with Krushynka being transferred to Fastiv Raion.
