The Haichul () or Haichur () is a river in southern Ukraine and a tributary of the Vovcha.

== Etymology == The river originated from the Tatar name "Gaichur", where Tatar hordes gathered before raids on Zaporizhzhia and left-bank Ukraine. The name later changed to "Haichul" in Ukrainian as mentioned by Dmytro Yavornytsky.
