History
In 2013, Kharkiv Oblast Rada voted to merge the settlement with the city of Kharkiv.[3] However, as of 2022, the population statistics estimate published by the State Statistics Service of Ukraine still listed Kulynychi as a separate urban-type settlement.
During the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Kulynychi was repeatedly shelled by the Russian army. Several houses, a clinic building and a kindergarten were seriously damaged.[4]
Until 26 January 2024, Kulynychi was designated an urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Kulynychi became a rural settlement.[5]
