Novosilky was a former village in Ukraine, located 20 km from the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant and 16 km from the former district center, the city of Chornobyl, in the Ivankiv district of Kyiv Oblast. Until 1986, it was part of the Chornobyl district and was administratively subordinate to the Zalissia village council.

Before the disaster, the village had 260 residents and 123 households.

After the accident at the power plant on April 26, 1986, the village was evacuated due to severe contamination, and its residents were relocated to the village of Nove Zalissia. The village was officially removed from records in 1999.
