Kerch (Russian: Керчь, Ukrainian: Керч, Old East Slavic: Кърчевъ, Crimean Tatar: Keriç, Turkish: Kerç, Ancient Greek: Παντικάπαιον Pantikapaion) is a city of regional significance on the Kerch Peninsula in the east of the Crimea. Population: 147,033 (2014 Census).
Founded 2,600 years ago as an ancient Greek colony, Kerch is considered to be one of the most ancient cities in Crimea. The city experienced rapid growth starting in the 1920s and was the site of a major battle during World War II.
Today, it is one of the largest cities in Crimea and is among the republic's most important industrial, transport and tourist centres.
Archeological digs at Mayak village near the city ascertained that the area had already been inhabited in 17th–15th centuries BC.
Kerch as a city starts its history in 7th century BC, when Greek colonists from Miletus founded a city-state named Panticapaeum on Mount Mithridat near the mouth of the Melek-Chesme river. Panticapaeum subdued nearby cities and by 480 BC became a capital of the Kingdom of Bosporus. Later, during the rule of Mithradates VI Eupator, Panticapaeum for a short period of time became the capital of the much more powerful and extensive Kingdom of Pontus.
A temporary bridge from Taman on the Russian mainland to Tuzla Island on the Crimean peninsula was opened in the Kerch Strait, Friday, marking a major first step in connecting Crimea to Russia.

You're sad sight, lost and lonely
Had a cat fight, up an alley
But you've got moonlight in your pocket
For the big black night
So don't worrt. There are miracles
Don't hurry, you've got time to end this tragedy
So don't worry 'cause there's love around
Wish I knew you like your lovers,
Like your friends do, all your brothers
And if only I could reach you
But we're all adults here
So don't worry. There are miracles
Don't hurry, you've got time to end this tragedy
So don't worry 'cause there's love around
On a great night you'll be winning
On a great night you'll be singing
