Hrushivka (Ukrainian: Грушівка; Russian: Грушевка) is a village in Kupiansk Raion (district) in Kharkiv Oblast of eastern Ukraine, at about 95.5 kilometres (59.3 mi) southeast by south (SEbS) from the centre of Kharkiv city.

The settlement came under attack by Russian forces during the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022 and was regained by Ukrainian forces by the beginning of September the same year.[2][3]
