History
Pro-Russian forces took the settlement under their control in the beginning of the War in Donbass, in 2014.[1]
Ukrainian forces have the settlement under control since the second half of 2015.[2] [3]
The war has brought both civilian and military casualties.[4] [5] [6] [7] [8] The settlement is located near the frontline between Ukrainian forces and the separatist Donetsk People's Republic in the war in Donbass.[9] It is one of the suburbs of Horlivka that stayed under Ukrainian army control, unlike Horlivka which is under separatist control since April 2014.[10] [11] To facilitate the administration, the Ukrainian government transferred Zaitseve from the city of Horlivka to Bakhmut Raion, which is under the control of the central government.
On February 21, 2022, pro-Russian rebels shelled the town, killing two soldiers. A civilian in the nearby village of Novoluhanske, 51 year old Roman Shyrokiy, also died, becoming the war's first civilian casualty in 2022.[12] [13] Volodymyr Zelenskyy voiced a condemnation of the incident.[14]
