Seaside resort and port in Zaporizhzhia Oblast
Berdiansk is a city of regional significance in Ukraine, located on the northern coast of the Sea of Azov, in the Zaporizhzhia Oblast. It is the administrative center of the Berdiansk Raion and is known as a maritime, climatic, and mud resort. Before Russia's full-scale invasion, the city's population was approximately 115,000 people. Since late February 2022, Berdiansk has been under temporary occupation by Russian forces.
