Bajratschky (Ukrainian Байрачки ; Russian Байрачки / Bairatschki ) is an urban-type settlement in the west of the Ukrainian Luhansk Oblast with about 800 inhabitants.
Administratively, the place belongs to the municipality of the city of Sorynsk, 3 kilometers northeast, which in turn belongs to the Perevalsk Rajon , the oblast capital Luhansk is 54 kilometers east of the place, the Yassynuwata – Millerowo railway from Debaltseve to Luhansk runs through the place .
Bajratschky was founded in 1954 as a miners' settlement for the newly developed Komissariwska coal mine (Комісарівська) and was elevated to an urban-type settlement in 1959. The coal mine was closed in 2000 due to unprofitability, the population has since decreased massively due to high unemployment. Since the summer of 2014, the town has been occupied by separatists from the Lugansk People's Republic during the war in Ukraine .
