Bug (Rivers)

Bug is the name of two rivers in Europe, alternatively spelt Boog.

The better known of the two, also known as the Western Bug, flows from the central Ukraine to the west, forming part of the boundary between that nation and Poland. It is 724 km (450 mi) long.

The other Bug River, this one sometimes known as the Southern Bug, is entirely located in Ukraine. It rises in the west, about 90 miles from the Polish border, and flows southeasterly into the Black Sea. It is 853 km (530 mi) long.
