About

Stanytsia Luhanska is a settlement on the Siverskyi Donets northeast of Luhansk. It grew from a Don Cossack stanitsa, and its river crossing became an important route across the front line in the war in Donbas.

Notes

The earlier name Stanychno-Luhanske was replaced by Stanytsia Luhanska in 2007. The former administrative label should not be mistaken for a separate settlement. Record certainty includes transliteration and alias coverage; formal system outputs are not all attested press forms.
