Kermenchyk (Ukrainian: Керменчик; Russian: Керменчик, romanizedKermenchik) is a rural settlement in southeastern Ukraine. Administratively, it is located in Staromlynivka rural hromada, Volnovakha Raion, Donetsk Oblast.

For some time prior to 2016, it was known as Oktiabrske (Ukrainian: Октябрське; Russian: Октябрьское, romanizedOktyabrskoye) until it was renamed to its current name as part of decommunization reforms in Ukraine.[1]
