Lozovaya Rudka (Russian: Лозовая Рудка; Ukrainian: Лозова Рудка) is a rural settlement (khutor) in Borisovsky District in Belgorod Oblast of western Russia, at some hundred metres northwards of the Ukrainian border.[1][2]
On 12 March 2024, during an incursion, Freedom of Russia Legion, Russian Volunteer Corps and Sibir Battalion claimed to have gained control of the settlement,[2] and issued a joint statement the following day (some days before Russian presidential election on 15–17 March 2024) urging "...everyone to leave the cities immediately...".[3]
