Ivankiv

Ivankiv (Ukrainian: Іванків [iˈwɑnkiu̯]) is a rural settlement in Vyshhorod Raion, Kyiv Oblast (province) of Ukraine.

[5] At the beginning of the 17th century, Crimean Tatars made four military campaigns on Polesia, and as a result, many people in Ivankiv were killed, taken prisoner and sold into slavery.

On 30 May 1645, the forces of Grand Crown Hetman Stanisław Koniecpolski attacked Ivankiv, which at that time belonged to Olizar Wołczkiewicz.

[6][7] The Ivankiv Historical and Local History Museum was reportedly destroyed during the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, leading to the loss of over twenty works by the artist Maria Prymachenko.

BBC quoted local residents saying that the occupying Russian forces did not allow evacuation and opened fire at anyone who tried to leave the settlement.
