Yenakiieve ( _uk. Єнакієве; also Yenakiyeve; _ru. Енакиево; Yenakiyevo) is a city in the Donetsk Oblast (province) of eastern Ukraine. The city is located on the Krynka River about convert|60|km|mi|lk=on from the oblast's administrative center, Donetsk.

Yenakiieve is an important regional center of coal mining, metallurgy, chemical production and manufacturing. The city's outdated industry has caused accidents like that of a gas explosion which occurred in June 2008 at one of Yenakiieve's coal mines.

Yenakiieve was founded in 1853, while its first coal mines were established in 1883. The settlement was incorporated as a city in 1925.

As of the 2001 Ukrainian Census, its population is 104,000. Based on the census results, 13.8% of the city's population uses the Ukrainian language in their daily life, while more than 86% use Russian. The city is known as the birthplace of former Prime Minsiter Viktor Yanukovych.
