Bohdanivka (Ukrainian: Богданівка, Russian: Богдановка, romanized: Bogdanovka), is a village located in Bakhmut Raion of Donetsk Oblast, Ukraine. It is located 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) northwest of Bakhmut.[1]
History[edit]
On 17 May 2023, during the Russian invasion of Ukraine, it was reported that the Ukrainian military was engaging in operations near the village.[1]
Starting in late January 2024, Russian forces have made Bohdanivka the focus of their "Bakhmut axis" launching a major offensive on the settlement.[2] As of February 17 the settlement is still under Ukrainian control.[3] These attacks consist of small groups with FPS drones as reconnaissance, with no use of heavy weapons, such as tanks, armored personnel carriers or artillery.[2]
After months of clashes, DeepStateMap.Live reported that Russian forces captured Bohdanivka by 13 April 2024.[4] The Russian Ministry of Defence announced control of the village on 21 April 2024.[5]
