Bilohorivka (Ukrainian: Білогорівка, IPA: [b⁽ʲ⁾iɫoˈɦɔr⁽ʲ⁾iu̯kɐ]; Russian: Белогоровка) is a rural settlement in Sievierodonetsk Raion, Luhansk Oblast, eastern Ukraine. It is located in Lysychansk urban hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.[1] It is located approximately 88 kilometres (55 mi) northwest from the centre of Luhansk and 25 kilometres (16 mi) west-south-west from Sievierodonetsk. In 2024 it was estimated that the village has no permanent residents left.[2]
As of June 2024, Bilohorivka was one of the few settlements in Luhansk Oblast which was still under the control of Ukrainian forces during the Russian invasion of Ukraine, who repelled attempts by Russian forces to capture the settlement.[3][4][5] On 20 May 2024, Russia's Ministry of Defence claimed that Russian forces had captured the village, which is disputed as Ukrainian troops still maintain a presence there.[6]
