Ulakly was founded by ethnic Greek migrants from a Crimean village, also called Ulakly (now Hlybokyi Yar ). The village in Donetsk Oblast was named after the original Crimean village, as was common with Greek migrants to the Azov region.[2] In 1892, it had a population of 309 people.[3] In this era, it was also alternatively known as Dzhemrek (Russian: Джемрекъ; Ukrainian: Джемрек)[3] or Zhemrek (Russian: Жемрекъ).[2]
On 24 May 2022, during the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Ulakly was shelled by the Russian military.[4]
