The town is located 15km (09miles) east of Donetsk.

History

The town, when it was still known as Sverdlove, was captured by the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic, a Russia-backed breakaway state in 2014 during the war in Donbas. At 11:20AM, November 9, 2014, the OSCE Special Monitoring Mission to Ukraine observed a convoy of seventeen green unmarked trucks moving west in the area of Sverdlove. Some of the trucks were towing multiple-launch rocket systems, and others carried ammunition crates.[2]

In 2016, the Ukrainian government officially renamed Sverdlove toKholodne in accordance with decommunization laws.[3] In 2020, the Ukrainian government designated all settlements in Makiivka municipality to Makiivka urban hromada.[4]

On January 25, 2022, there were ceasefire violations near Kholodne.[5]
