History
Zverevo grew from a mining settlement, which was founded in the beginning of the 20th century.[citation needed] Under its Ukrainian name Zvirevo it was administratively part of the Donets Governorate of Ukraine[6] from 1920 to 1924. It was granted urban-type settlement status in 1929 and town status in 1989.[citation needed]
Administrative and municipal status
Within the framework of administrative divisions, it is, along with one rural locality, incorporated as Zverevo Urban Okrug—an administrative unit with the status equal to that of the districts.[1] As a municipal division, this administrative unit also has urban okrug status.[3]
