Novodonetske

Novodonetske is an urban-type settlement in Donetsk Oblast in eastern Ukraine, situated along the Vodiana River in a flat landscape. The community functions as a local administrative hub for surrounding areas in the Kramatorsk Raion.

The settlement originated in 1956 with the development of a local mining operation and received urban-type status in 1960 under Soviet administration. This industrial foundation shaped the community's early growth and character.

The settlement reflects a blend of linguistic traditions that shape daily communication and local identity. Walking through the community, you encounter both Ukrainian and Russian spoken naturally in everyday interactions.

The settlement can be reached using postal codes 85010 and 85011, and phone communications use the area code +380 6277. Basic local services are available as you would expect in a regional administrative center.

The community underwent an administrative reclassification in 2024 that changed its official status. This shift reflects broader administrative reforms taking place across Ukraine.
