"News of Donbass" is an independent online publication that covers events in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions of Ukraine. "Donbas News" was founded in 2003 in Donetsk. From the first year of its existence, "ND" covered political, economic and social events in the region.

Since 2014, "Donbas News" has also been covering Russia's war against Ukraine. After the occupation of Donetsk, the editorial office was forced to leave the city. At the same time, we opened correspondent points in Slovyansk and Mariupol, which existed before the full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation in 2022. Since then, the editorial office of "ND" has been located in different cities of Ukraine. Despite the war, "News of Donbas" continues its work and covers events from both sides of the front.
