Background

Kharkovskaya Coal Mine is an underground coal mine in Luhansk Oblast, Ukraine. The mine used owned and operated by DTEK Sverdlovanthracite, a subisidiary of DTEK Energy B.V. With the seizing of the mine by pro-Russian separatists in 2017, the mine eventually came under the control of Republic Fuel Company Vostokugol State Enterprise[2], owned by the Ministry of Fuel and Energy of the unrecognized Luhansk People's Republic.

A Ukrainian media source from November 2022 suggested that Russian occupiers will be closing the mine.[3] A Russian source from March 2023 stated that the mine is not operational although water is being pumped.[4]
