History

Until 18 July 2020, Zidky belonged to Zmiiv Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Kharkiv Oblast to seven. The area of Zmiiv Raion was merged into Chuhuiv Raion.[2] [3]

Until 26 January 2024, Zidky was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Zidky became a rural settlement.[4]
