The city of Luhansk (Ukrainian: Луганськ, IPA: [ɫuˈɦɑnʲsʲk]) or Lugansk (Russian: Луганск; IPA: [lʊˈgansk]), formerly known as Voroshilovgrad (1935-1958 and 1970-1990), functions as the administrative center of Luhansk Oblast in easternmost Ukraine. The city itself is also designated as city of oblast significance. Population: 425,848 (2013 est.).
Since 2014, Luhansk is controlled by the forces of the Luhansk People's Republic and is not controlled by the Ukrainian Government. The administration of Luhansk Oblast was moved to Sievierodonetsk.
The city traces its history to 1795 when the British industrialist Charles Gascoigne founded a metal factory near the Zaporizhian Cossacks settlement Kamianyi Brid. The settlement around the factory was known as Luganskiy Zavod. In 1882 the factory settlement Luganskiy Zavod was merged with the town of Kamianyi Brid into the city of Luhansk. Located in the Donets Basin, Luhansk developed into an important industrial center of Eastern Europe, particularly as a home to the major locomotive-building company Luhanskteplovoz. The city was occupied by Nazi Germany between July 14, 1942 and February 14, 1943.

Russia sent troops and military equipment into Ukraine in what has been termed a stealth invasion[51] following the February 2014 Ukrainian revolution and Euromaidan movement, the flight and disputed impeachment of President Viktor Yanukovych[52][53][54] and the subsequent 2014 Crimean crisis. In February, during that crisis, unmarked soldiers gradually took control of the Ukrainian territory of Crimea, which Russia then annexed.[55] London-based military experts said the soldiers were likely Russian special forces (possibly including Spetsnaz commandos) and airborne units,[56] and although Russia initially insisted thatRussian forces stationed in the area[57] were not involved, Russian president Vladimir Putin admitted in April that Russian troops had been active in Crimea and said this h...
