Irpin (Template:Langx, {{#invoke:IPA|main}}) is a city on the Irpin River in Bucha Raion, Kyiv Oblast, northern Ukraine. It is located next to the capital Kyiv. Irpin hosts the administration of Irpin urban hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.<ref name="admreform_2020_irpin_city">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> The city has a population of Template:Ua-pop-est2022
The city has a railway station built in 1899. In 2022, it received the title Hero City of Ukraine.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
In the battle of Irpin during the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, 70% of the city was damaged. As of June 25, 2023, the city's mayor reported that most people had already returned: "Yes, we have already returned 85% of the entire city's population. In addition, we have received almost 25,000 internally displaced persons, mostly from the east."<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
HistoryEdit
In the 17th century on the site of Irpin were the villages of Romanivka and khutir Liubka. In the 19th century Severynivka village, and khutirs Rudnia and Stoianka appeared.
Irpin was formed in 1899 as a passing loop, during construction of the Kyiv–Kovel railway line. Railway workers founded the town near the railway road along with other localities such as Bucha and Vorzel. The city's name (along with the settlement of Vorzel) was chosen due to its location on the Irpin River.
From 26 July 1941, right after the Battle of Kyiv, it was occupied by the Wehrmacht until November 1943, when Kyiv was recaptured. Most of its Jewish population were murdered in either Babi Yar or other massacres by the Nazis.
In 1956, Irpin's status was changed to that of a "city of raion (district) subordination," subordinate to the Kyiv-Sviatoshyn Raion (district).
On 30 December 1962, the Presidium of the Verkhovna Rada of the Ukrainian SSR issued a decree changing the status of Irpin to that of a "city of oblast subordination," thus being directly subordinate to the oblast authorities rather than the city administration housed within the city. Also mentioned within the decree were the inclusion of the urban-type settlements of Bucha (a city since 2007), Vorzel, Hostomel, and Kotsiubynske within the city limits.
Until 18 July 2020, Irpin was incorporated as a city of oblast significance and the center of Irpin Municipality, which also included the urban-type settlement of Hostomel, Kotsiubynske, and Vorzel. In July 2020, as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Kyiv Oblast to seven, Irpin Municipality was merged into Bucha Raion.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

During the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, Irpin became the site of a battlefield engagement during the Kyiv offensive. Russian forces took the Hostomel Airport in the north of the city to facilitate an advance southwards, around Kyiv. The city was shelled by Russian artillery while the Ukrainians were able to repel and destroy multiple forces attempting to move into the town.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> According to Human Rights Watch, on March 6, 2022, Russian forces bombarded an intersection on a road of Irpin which was used by civilians to flee.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> As of 24 March 2022, 80% of the city was recaptured from Russian occupants by Ukrainian Armed Forces.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> On 28 March, Mayor Oleksandr Markushyn announced that all of Irpin was fully recovered by the Ukrainian forces.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> On March 30, the mayor of Irpin said that the Russian military had killed more than 300 civilians and 50 servicemen in the city.<ref>Template:In lang "Those killed were crushed by tanks": up to 300 civilians died in Irpin - the mayor, unian.net (30 March 2022)</ref>
