History

edit

Until 18 July 2020, Prudianka belonged to Derhachi Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Kharkiv Oblast to seven. The area of Derhachi Raion was merged into Kharkiv Raion.[3][4]

Until 26 January 2024, Prudianka was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Prudianka became a rural settlement.[5]
