Topoli (Ukrainian: Тополі; Russian: Тополи,) is a village in Kupiansk Raion, Kharkiv Oblast, Ukraine, near the border with Russia.
It was captured early in the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine by Russian forces.[2]
Topoli is south-east of the river Oskil. It is 17 kilometers from Tavilzhanka, 21 kilometers from Dvorichna, 40 kilometers from Kivsharivka and 35 kilometers from Kupiansk. It was part of Dvorichna Raion until that was merged with Kupiansk Raion in 2020.[3]
A railway line runs north through the village and across the border to Urazovo in Russia. Since June 24, 2017, there has been a border service point named after the town, which was opened by Interior Minister Arsen Avakov and NSDC Secretary Oleksandr Turchynov.
The village was founded in 1725.
On June 12, 2020, it became part of Dvorichna settlement hromada.[4] On July 17, 2020, after the abolition of Dvorichna Raion, it became part of Kupiansk Raion.[5]
The village was occupied by Russian troops on February 25, 2022.[6]
