The site is near the modern village of Stepanivka, Kadiivka urban hromada, Perevalskyi Raion in Luhansk Oblast. On 28 July 2014, Ukrainian forces reportedly secured this village from pro-Russian separatists. Starting in mid-April 2014, pro-Russian separatists captured several towns in Luhansk Oblast.
