Druzhba (Ukrainian: Дружба) is a rural settlement in Toretsk urban hromada, Bakhmut Raion, Donetsk Oblast, eastern Ukraine.[1]

History

Russo-Ukrainian War

Russian invasion of Ukraine

On 21 July 2023, during the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Russian shelling killed two children and injured a woman in the settlement.[2]

As part of a renewed effort to capture Donetsk Oblast, the Russian Armed Forces gained a foothold within Druzhba as well as other satellite settlements of Toretsk and the Niu-York urban area, as geolocated footage by DeepState confirmed.[3][4] The Russian Ministry of Defense claimed that its forces captured the settlement (called Kirovo by the Russians) on 31 August 2024.[5]
