Ukrainian activists in Chernihiv have dismantled two Soviet monuments as part of ongoing efforts to remove lingering traces of the Communist past from Ukraine's public spaces. The two monuments which were taken down honoured Soviet-era figures connected to the Bolshevik siezure of Ukraine. Chernihiv activists said that the the figures were both tied to the 1918 Battle of Kruty, in which hundreds of Ukrainian students died near Kyiv in an attempt to resist a Bolshevik advance on the Ukrainian capital city.

Business Insider 2015-02-13Chernihiv (Ukrainian: Чернігів Ukrainian pronunciation: [t͡ʃerˈɲiɦiu̯]) or Chernigov (Russian: Чернигов) is a historic city in northern Ukraine. It is the administrative center of the Chernihiv Oblast (province), as well as of the surrounding Chernihivskyi Raion (district) within the oblast. The estimated population of the city is around 299,000 (as of 2006).
Chernihiv was first mentioned in the Rus'-Byzantine Treaty (907) (as Черниговъ), but the time of establishment is not known. According to the items uncovered by archaeological excavations of a settlement which included artifacts from the Khazar Khaganate, it seems to have existed at least in the 9th century. Towards the end of the 10th century, the city probably had its own rulers. It was there that the Black Grave, one of the largest and earliest royal mounds in Eastern Europe, was excavated in the 19th century.
In the southern portion of the Kievan Rus' the city was the second by importance and wealth. From the early 11th century it was the seat of powerful Grand Principality of Chernigov, whose rulers at times vied for power with Kievan Grand Princes, and often overthrew them and took the primary seat in Kiev for themselves. The grand principality was the largest in Kievan Rus and included not only the Severian towns but even such remote regions as Murom, Ryazan and Tmutarakan. The golden age of Chernihiv, when the city population peaked at 25,000, lasted until 1239 when the city was sacked by the hordes of Batu Khan, which started a long period of relative obscurity.
