Kruhliakivka (Ukrainian: Кругляківка, Russian: Кругляковка) is a village in Ukraine, located in the Kupiansk Raion in the Kharkiv Oblast.

History

In April 2022, Ukrainian forces captured the village from Russian control.[1]

In August 2023, Russian forces reportedly struck private houses in the village with guided aerial bombs, killing at least two civilians and injuring five others.[2]

On 18 October 2024, Ukrainian forces claimed to have pushed Russian forces out of the village.[3] Russian forces advanced in the southwestern part of the village around 19 October.[4] On 30 October, the Russian army claimed to have recaptured the village.[5][6]

One road (O-211942) leads along the eastern bank of the Oskil and the second road (P-79) leads with a bridge over the Oskil to the village of Sen'kove.
