Velyki Klishchi (Ukrainian: Великі Кліщі; Russian: Великие Клещи) is a former village (a selo) in Korosten Raion, Zhytomyr Oblast, northern Ukraine. The village was evacuated in 1990 following the aftermath of the 1986 Chernobyl disaster.

It is located within the "Zone of Absolute (Mandatory) Resettlement" of the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone, which is an officially designated exclusion area around the site of the disaster.[1] A church by the name of St. Michael is located in the village.
