The Donetsk Gubernatorial Committee of the Communist Party of Ukraine, commonly referred to as the Donetsk CPU gubkom, was a regional branch of the Communist Party of (Bolsheviks) Ukraine in Donetsk Governorate.
Due to difficult situation in the region, the governorate was governed by a local revolutionary committee (revkom).
The gubernatorial committee was finally established in September 1920.
In 1923 the Ukrainian SSR was split into okruhas (not to be confused with okrugs).
The Donetsk Governorate was initially split into 7 okruhas centered in following cities: Bakhmut, Luhansk, Mariupol, Yuzovka, Starobilsk, Taganrog, and Shakhty.
