City in Kharkiv Oblast, Ukraine
Vovchansk (Ukrainian: Вовчанськ, pronounced [wou̯ˈtʃɑnʲsʲk] ; Russian: Волчанск, romanized: Volchansk) is a depopulated and destroyed city in Chuhuiv Raion, Kharkiv Oblast, northeastern Ukraine. It hosts the administration of Vovchansk urban hromada. The Vovcha river, a tributary of the Donets river, runs through the city. It is located in the historic region of Sloboda Ukraine. Vovchansk had a population of 17,459 (2022 estimate). However, that dropped to about 300 by May 2024, as the city was largely destroyed during the Russo-Ukrainian War's 2024 Kharkiv offensive. As of 2025, there are no inhabitants in the city.
