Pro-Russian forces took the settlement under their control in the beginning of the War in Donbass, in 2014.

Ukrainian forces reoccupied the settlement in the second half of 2015.

The war has brought along both civilian and military casualties. The settlement is located near the frontline between Ukrainian forces and the separatist Donetsk People's Republic in the War in Donbass. It is one of the suburbs of Horlivka that stayed under Ukrainian army control, unlike Horlivka which is under separatist control since April 2014.
