The border post became part of protracted struggle between the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine and pro-Russian insurgents affiliated with the Luhansk People's Republic during the rising unrest in Ukraine in the aftermath of the 2014 Ukrainian revolution. Multiple attacks by the insurgents upon the post were repelled. Despite this, the Border Guard was overwhelmed by insurgents on 20 June 2014, and was forced to retreat into Russian territory, where many guardsmen were captured, and later returned to Ukraine.[4][5] An LPR official said on 25 June that they had gained complete control of the border post.[6] It was reported in July that the post was used by the insurgents as vital link to supplies and reinforcements from Russia.[7] According to the Russian Federal Security Service forty-one Ukrainian soldiers defected to Russia at Izvaryne on 27 July 2014.[8] Ukrainian Defence Minister Valeriy Heletey confirmed that 41 Ukrainian soldiers had crossed into Russia and that this case was investigated.[9]
