Wuhljar (Ukrainian Вугляр ; Russian Вугляр / Wugljar or unofficially Угольщик / Ugolschtschik ) is an urban-type settlement in eastern Ukraine in Donetsk Oblast with about 1100 inhabitants.

geography

The urban-type settlement is located in the Donets Basin , about 14 kilometers east of the Donetsk Oblast center and 8 kilometers southeast of the city center of Makiyivka , to whose urban district it belongs.

The place belongs to the settlement council of Proletarske (3 kilometers to the east), which administratively is assigned to the Stadtrajon Hirnyz within Makijiwka.

history

The place arose after the First World War in the course of coal mining in the region, initially had the name Proletarij (Пролетарій) and was later renamed Wuhljar (derived from the Ukrainian word Вуглець / Wuhlez for "carbon"). In 1965 Wuhljar was given the status of an urban-type settlement, and since summer 2014 the place has been occupied by separatists from the Donetsk People's Republic during the war in Ukraine .
