Bohdanivka (Ukrainian: Богданівка, Russian: Богдановка|Bogdanovka), is a village located in Bakhmut Raion of Donetsk Oblast, Ukraine. It is located 5km (03miles) northwest of Bakhmut.[1]
On 17 May 2023, during the Russian Invasion of Ukraine of the Russo-Ukrainian War, it was reported that the Ukrainian military was engaging in operations near the village.
Starting in late January 2024, Russian forces had made Bohdanivka the focus of their "Bakhmut axis" launching a major offensive on the settlement. These attacks consisted of small groups with FPV 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.[3] The Russian Ministry of Defence formally announced control of the village on 21 April 2024.[4]
