Izium, Regional administrative center in Kharkiv Oblast, Ukraine.

Located along the Donets River at an elevation of 67 meters, Izium connects the regions of Kharkiv and Donbas through its transportation network.

Founded in 1681 as a fortress constructed by the Kharkiv Sloboda Cossack Regiment, Izium received official city status in 1765 under the Russian Empire.

Local institutions maintain educational facilities and community centers that support primary and secondary education for residents of the Kharkiv Oblast region.

The city offers railway and bus connections to Kharkiv, with the central station located 193 kilometers from the regional capital by rail route.

Mass graves discovered after the 2022 Russian occupation revealed evidence of wartime events, leading to extensive investigations and documentation processes.
