History

On 9 December 2014, following the events surrounding the War in Donbass, the Verkhovna Rada, Ukraine's national parliament, moved Yasynuvats’kyi district's administration buildings and government to вул. Першотравнева 12, (English: 12 May Day Street) in Ocheretyne urban-type settlement, which is near H20 about 35 km north-northwest of Donetsk.[1][2] The raion (as under control by Ukrainian authorities) is located 20 kilometers from the frontline of the War in Donbass.[4]

The city Yasynuvata is under control of the pro-Russian separatists Donetsk People's Republic.[5] Early February 2016 well known separatist Pavel Gubarev was appointed Yasynuvata Raion mayor by the Donetsk People's Republic.[6]
