Sosnove (Ukrainian: Соснове; Russian: Сосновое) is a rural settlement (selyshche) in Kramatorsk Raion (district) in Donetsk Oblast of eastern Ukraine, at about 119.8 kilometres (74.4 mi) north-northwest (NNW) of the centre of Donetsk city. It belongs to Lyman urban hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.

The settlement came under attack by Russian forces during the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022[2] and was regained by Ukrainian forces in September the same year.[3] The village was completely destroyed as a result of the war.[citation needed]
