Lisne, Crimea

Lisne or Lesnoye (Лісне; Лесное) is a village in the Sudak Municipality of the Crimea, a territory recognized by a majority of countries as part of Ukraine and annexed by Russia as the Republic of Crimea.

Previously, the settlement was known as the Suuk-Su village (Suvuq Suv). Following the forced deportation of the Crimean Tatars in 1944, the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the Russian SFSR published a decree on May 18, 1948, renaming the settlement along with many others throughout Crimea from their native Crimean Tatar names to their current variants.

Lisne is located on Crimea's southern shore in the Crimean Mountains at an elevation of 250 m. Its population was 581 in the 2001 Ukrainian census. Current population:
