The first documentary mention of the village, originally known as İslâm Terek, is found in the
Chamber Description of Crimea of the year 1784, according to which, during the final period of the Crimean Khanate, İslâm Terek was part of the Eski Qırım
kadiluk of the
Kefe Eyalet. After the annexation of the
Crimean Khanate by the Russian Empire on April 19, 1783, by the decree of Catherine II to the Senate on February 19, 1784, the
Taurida Oblast was formed on the territory of the former Crimean Khanate, and the village was assigned to the Levkopol county, and after the dissolution of the Levkopol county in 1787, it was assigned to the Feodosia county of the Taurida Oblast. After the Pauline reforms from 1796 to 1802, it was included in the Akmechet county of the
Novorossiya Governorate. Under the new administrative division, following the creation of the
Taurida Governorate on October 8 (20), 1802, İslâm Terek was included in the Parpach volost of the
Feodosiysky Uyezd. İslâm Terek was renamed
Kirovske in 1944 by the Soviet government. On 23 August 2023 the Ukrainian parliament symbolically restored the former name. ==Notable people==
