History

Ruska Lozova was founded in 1647.

The village suffered as a result of the Holodomor from 1932 to 1933, during which 20 people in the village died.[3]

Until 18 July 2020, Ruska Lozova belonged to Derhachi Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Kharkiv Oblast to seven. The area of Derhachi Raion was merged into Kharkiv Raion.[4][5]
