Trokhizbenka (Ukrainian: Трьохізбенка; Russian: Трёхизбенка) is a village in Shchastia urban hromada, Shchastia Raion (district) in Luhansk Oblast of eastern Ukraine, at about 25 km NW from the centre of Luhansk city, on the left bank of the Siverskyi Donets.

History[edit]

The settlement was founded by the Don Cossacks in the first half of the 17th century.

War in Donbas[edit]

The village was occupied by pro-Russian troops in the spring of 2014. On 11 July 2014 Ukrainian troops took the village under their control and set up a checkpoint near the bridge over the river.[1] The bridge was blown up on 3 September 2014.[2] The war caused both civilian and military casualties.[3][4] On 25 February 2022, the day after the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced that Trokhizbenka had been captured as part an offensive by the forces of the Luhansk People's Republic.[5]
