Azovske (, , ) is an urban-type settlement in Dzhankoi Raion, to the southeast of the town of Dzhankoi in northeastern Crimea, along highway E97. Population: It is part of Russian-occupied Ukraine.
==History== The village was inhabited in the Bronze Age (3rd and 2nd millennium BCE). This is evidenced by the excavation of 15 mounds in the immediate vicinity of Azovske. At the time of the annexation of Crimea to Russia in 1783 there was a small village in the vicinity named Kalay. In 1892, after the construction of the railroad to Feodosia, Kalay railway station was established. In the early 20th century the village grew, with about ten retail businesses, and numerous new homes.
