Geography
History
During Soviet times Dymer served as a district centre of Kyiv Oblast.[3]
Clashes occurred here during the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine,[4] when Ukrainian airborne assault troops engaged Russian soldiers at Ivankiv and Dymer.[5][6][7][8][9]
Until 26 January 2024, Dymer was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Dymer became a rural settlement.[10]
Economy
Dymer is a centre of forest industry.[3]
