Since 2014, Brianka has been under the control of the Russian-backed Luhansk People's Republic (LPR/LNR). In 2022, Russia declared its annexation of the region.

History

The settlement traces its history to small settlements of Zaporizhian Cossacks, zymivnyki, that appeared in place of future Brianka in 1696.

The settlement developed further into a miners' settlement around the local Brianka Quarry since the end of 19th century. After the World War II, in 1944–1962 it was a suburb of neighboring city of Kadiivka. Brianka became a city in its own right in 1962. A local newspaper has been published in the city since April 1965.

During the Russian invasion of Ukraine reports have emerged about Russian soldiers who refused to continue fighting being held captive in the city.
