Khotin (Ukrainian: Хотінь, Russian: Хотень) is a rural settlement in Sumy Raion, Sumy Oblast, Ukraine. It is located on the banks of the Oleshnia, a right tributary of the Psel in the drainage basin of the Dnieper. Khotin hosts the administration of Khotin settlement hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.[1] Population:
During the Russian Invasion of Ukraine, Ukrainian authorities claimed that two siblings were fatally shot by a Russian sabotage group that had infiltrated the village.[2]
Until 26 January 2024, Khotin was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Khotin became a rural settlement.[3]
The settlement has access to Highway H07 which runs south to Sumy, Romny, and Kyiv. The same highway runs north to the Russian border and across the border to Sudzha and Kursk.
