Russian invasion of Ukraine

During the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, the village was captured by Russian forces as part of the Southern offensive.[2][failed verification]
On April 23, 2023, it was reported by the Institute for the Study of War and the Associated Press that the village had been liberated by an incursion during the Dnieper campaign on the night of April 20 and 21.[2][3][4][5]
The Antonivsky island, on which the village is situated, would be completely submerged following the destruction of the Kakhovka Dam on 6 June 2023.[6] During the flooding, Russian forces looted the houses of the village, and scavenged the locals' boats for parts and engines.[1] In late June Russian sources claimed that the village was recaptured by the Armed Forces of Ukraine during the 2023 counteroffensive.[7]
Despite repeated claims from Russian authorities and propagandists, such as Igor Girkin, that Ukrainian forces had been removed from the Island, Russian forces retreated following the arrival of Ukrainian reinforcements on July 11. After withdrawing from Antonivsky island, Russian milbloggers called the retreat "justified" and "measured" citing the island's swampy nature and constant Ukrainian artillery bombardments as making the village heavily defensible.[8]
