History
On 17 May 2023, during the Russian invasion of Ukraine, it was reported that the Ukrainian military was engaging in operations near the village.
Starting in late January 2024, Russian forces have made Bohdanivka the focus of their "Bakhmut axis" launching a major offensive on the settlement. As of February 17 the settlement is still under Ukrainian control. These attacks consist of small groups with FPS drones as reconnaissance, with no use of heavy weapons, such as tanks, armored personnel carriers or artillery.
After months of clashes, DeepStateMap.Live reported that Russian forces captured Bohdanivka by 13 April 2024. The Russian Ministry of Defence announced control of the village on 21 April 2024.
