Vuhlehirsk is a district-level city in the Donetsk region, subordinated to the Yenakiieve city council. Population is 8,226 (2011). The official date of foundation is 1879 – the year of opening the railway station Khatsepetivka (Vuhlehirsk was called village Khatsepetivka until 1958). Vuhlehirsk is located in the south-eastern part of Ukraine at the distance of 61 km from the regional centre of Donetsk and 750 km from the capital of Ukraine, Kyiv.

In February 2015, during the War in Donbas, the city was captured by separatist forces of the self-declared Donetsk People's Republic during the Battle of Debaltseve.[2]

On 11 December 2014 the city municipality of Vuhlehirsk including city of Vuhlehirsk and five other settlements (Bulavyne, Hrozne, Kayutyne, Krasny Pakhar, Savelivka) along with two town municipalities (Olkhovatske and Bulavynske) were transferred from the Yenakiieve Municipality to the Bakhmut Raion.[3]

Vuhlehirsk formerly had a tram and trolleybus system. Its tramway system operated from November 10, 1958 to June 28, 1980 and was serviced by KTM/KTP-1 trams and a few KTM/KTP-2 trams.[4] Its trolleybus network operated from July 8, 1982 to August 12, 2014 and the contact network was destroyed by the war, a year after the successful addition of another trolleybus on the route, for a maximum of two vehicles during the peak.[5][6]
